I found this while browsing the net, got it from one of the Bavarian Autosport newsletters.

lol im sure is easier to take the wheel off than tape off the whole car...

I bought a similar kit and the colour did not match at all. Also, you need to be pretty good at finishing touches to get the finish right. As my wife is now driving the car alot and leaving me lots of "presents" on the wheels, I'm rather gonna wait till be end of the year and then get both passenger side wheels refurbished.

My mom just rashed her back right wheel the other day.. the mags & tires dont even have 2000Km on them..

problem with this

1) E90 so no spare wheel, no jack, so cant just remove wheel & take it in to get fixed..

So a DIY might be a good idea.. but to match the colors...

Really??? What does BMW expect you do to when you get a flat tyre on the freeway? :bangdesk:

there are guys around who will come and fix your rims (as long as its not too bad or a buckled rim) without taking the tyre off...
BMW rivonia did it to my car when I bought it before I took ownership.
