Took a Turn Too Close to Curb
I'm so mad at myself for taking a turn too close to the curb. I'm too used to my Integra still I think.
In any case, I took it too tight and my passenger side rear wheel scraped the curb. It left about 1/3 or the rim's edge jagged and messed up. Man, and it's only a half a month old! Any suggestions on what I should do? Is it worth trying to fix? Replace? Just forget about it and move on? Oh, it makes me feel so mad and stupid. I drove like a mad man aftwards to vent frustration. Anyway, just thought I'd mention this.

I have done it a few times don't feel bad.
I still think Iam driving my 94 Accord sometimes. I park my car in my back yard so I have a gated fence. I have to get out of the car to open the fence outwards into the alley.When I get out to open it the car sometimes is not far enough past it for the fence to open allthe way. I still think I am driving that Accord its butt was smaller.

If those are CL-S rims the width is different that the TL-s rims. 7.5 vs 7 inches respectively.
see if you can have them fixed, I dont see anyone selling just one rim unless you buy from the dealer
