*HELP* What Am i supposed to do about this WARNING Disturbing Pictures!!!!
Ok so i was in tallahasse i was up way way way too early for work and i was driving to work and slightly swerved and skimmed the curb with my rims and now im screwed.... Any chance this is covered in warranty.... you cant really tell unless your close up or your looking for it. Now i have to decide whether to get new rims then body kit or body kit and then rims ...UGH..

Did you say you SKIMMED a curb? The pic I attached below is what skimming a curb looks like. With your pics, on the other hand, it looks more like you FED the curb your wheel. Bummer man...if you usually give frequent donations to the curb foundation I advise you sell your stock rims and get chrome ones. At least the next time you skim they won't look as noticeable.

OK, wow, that's a pretty sad story OP. But, just curious here, in what plane of reality are you living in even THINKING that you running into a curb would be covered under warranty?
