E9x M3 wheels (220M)

[fido]

I have noticed that one my wheels have been kerbed. I didn't hear it but suspect I accidentally went forwards a bit instead of backwards after doing a quick shop. On inspection before a wash it looks a bit more than a scuff. Must remember - always angle the steering!



So what are my options? I think this wheel has been cut once so might not be able to do it again. Is it possible to do a localised repair? My other options (given that I want to keep the forged 220M set) 1. buy a new wheel 2. spray the wheels black? I like this look but I know many don't.
Handing it over to the M3 purists ..

Black wheels might as well be plastic bin lids. All the same from a distance.

It shouldn’t be hard to find a replacement wheel on eBay or M3 cutters as many seem to swap these out for the competition wheels (or reps of these). There’s also a Facebook group where a guy regularly breaks M3s.

I bought a Monte Carlo edition which came with these wheels in gloss black. Never been a fan of black wheels but o actually like the look on the E92, although that might be because the grill, vents and exhausts are all black so that might be why it works.

That's a good point. I have carbon mirrors and roof (but the grill and exhausts are silver) so it might clash a bit. Cheers, looks like a replacement wheel after i have learnt to park properly.
