Generally i make a rule of never letting anyone drive my car. Last week however, after a party, i let the bartender (an old friend), who didnt drink, drive the car because i've been drinking. on the way out of the parking lot he curbed my wheels on my driverside, right after i told him to be careful not to curb my wheels. Earlier that day, the bartender's old roommate tells me that he was in the market to buy a new car and wanted to test drive my car, everything was okay until we park and he curbs both wheels on the passenger side. ANYWAYS although the curb rash is very minimal, I'm going to get my wheels repaired and was wondering; since i'm doing that already, if i should just change the color of my wheels, and if so what color?
Can anyone please give me your opinion on this?
Pics right BEFORE my wheels where curbed:

damn that sux, i say leave them. I wouldnt have let him park it though. Or maybe you should have gotten out and watched. People without wheels dont know how to avoid curbing them. Is what it is I guess, sorry to hear
