Took three weeks to get it from Germany. So far so good on that. They wheel the car out and one of my rims is torn up in three areas. Tire even has a small gouge. They have "a guy" that will fix it Friday.

What can I expect from an on-site repair?

TIA

Default Hopefully the DSG stays fixed! Here's what I'd expect for wheel repair

Default Actually, I'd be more upset...

but the most damage was done right at the spot I "self repaired" using that How To and the same materials. I was OK with the results, but that's because I curbed the wheel...not Diablo! They'll have to do a better job than I did!

Most reconditioning companies I've seen, do good jobs.
