Ok before you say I told you so, I won't do it again!

Running a bit late today, was eating brekkie in the car, and pulled out of petrol station to make a left turn, whilst eating a sausage with one hand.

ANyway, kerb to my left was 6 inches high and drove into that as I made the turn, hence I have a kerbed chrome rim and one big hole in my Pirelli P Zero!

My question is regarding the wheel, how best to prevent corrosion where it's been curbed? Do I just polish up with NXT metal polish and then apply some clear lacquer?

Hope that sausage was worth it..?

Oops...

I think whatever you do, overtime it will start to deteriorate from the damaged area. Chrome can be difficult to 'touch up'.

Gutted....

That nasty, new rims as well. Expensive Sausage

Does anyone know of a place that refurbs chromes?

Wow, that's a lot of damage, how fast did you hit that kerb?

I'm guessing having the wheel chrome plated again will be very expensive.......

I gave a bit of welly as I was trying to pull out before a Scooby, and I didn't want to drop the sausage at the same time

If anyone is selling a set of 20 inch rims, get in touch wid me!

Ouch!

Yeh a very exspensive sausauge!! you sausauge

Chroming isnt a cheap process..

damn, i never realised the sidewalls wouldn't put up with that impact....thought they might have

hope you manage to get it sorted one way or another

good job it wasn't a ginsters cornish pasty.....they're seriously demanding to eat on the move

Driving without due care and attention springs to mind ........ or maybe even reckless driving ........... hmmmmmmmmmmm

You bringing a pad of blank NIP forms to JAE then, Ahmet?

Hi,

Thats a hell of a good job you made of that tyre and alloy,was the sausage battered?

Looks like the alloy wheel was

Chips..

i wonder what the post would be on the scooby site, i bet the guy is still laughing.

Maybe he can write himself a retrospective NIP for his bald tyres LOL

No, the kids walking to school were laughing like mad as I drove down the street with a flat tyre and chrome rims trying to look "cool"

Hi

Try Lepsons (http://www.lepsons.com) I know they do alloys and even if they don't do chromes they will know someone who does.

You could also try Eden Park Motors on Bromley Road in SE London (Catford) they are aftermarket wheel specialists and do some serious bling for Chelsae tractors.

Bad news Maneesh


What type of sausage was you trying to eat? after all it did make you loose control

It was one of those Tesco's finest ones, you know like fancy herbs and whatver in em.

Oh ok

Are they the short stubby sausages or the big ones? I don't like the small ones they only last a few secounds.
