Repaired a dented wheel
I damaged two 5-spoke 16" wheels: one got dent after hitting a curb in a parking, the other got scratched a week later while doing a perfect parallel parking. Mmmm, too close, though.
I followed "NASAracer" tech document (see link below) and got the following results:
1) Dented wheel (bad enough to remove a bit of the tire !)

2) Same after repair

3) Scratched wheel after repair (the whole bottom lip was scratched and flattened)

Thanks, NASAracer !<ul><li><a href="https://www.audiworld.com/tech/ext43.shtml">Wheel repair tech document.</a></li></ul>

Forgot the exact web site, but
The P/N has to be 0892181U, you could order it from autopia-carcare.com or focussport.com or zapspeedracing.com
It is called "Wurth German Alloy Silver Wheel Lacquer".
