My "new" used 2002S came with some pretty cool looking Techart Formula wheels. Unfortunately the former owner had trouble with driving. He managed to put curb marks on all four of these beauties. I have been looking into getting them repaired. The quotes range form $80.00 per wheel for a guy who comes to your location and repairs only the damaged area of the wheel in place without removing the tire or wheel, to a guy with a fairly sophisticated wheel and tire business for performance cars here in southern Cal who removes the wheels and tires, completely sandblasts, repairs the scratch and electrostaticly repaints the whole wheel. This process takes 4 weeks and they loan you stock Boxster wheels and tires to keep you going. This process was quoted to me at $200.00 per wheel. I like the wheels but like the Gemballas much better.

Any Ideas??
