Well, it looks like I messed up a little this weekend. After not sleeping for two days I had to drive 9 hours home and passed out on the interstate. I kissed the car next to me then woke up. It hit the front and rear fender flares, mirror and back door on the passenger side. It looked pretty bad but I didn't hit them hard enough to bend metal.

So yesterday I went and peeled off the PPF on the fender flares and guess what...not a scratch on them. I think the back door will buff out. The big problem now is the it hit my front wheel. I have the warp speed wheels and there are a few nicks on the wheel. Are these fixable? Would it have to be a powder coat or paint? They have metal flake(at least look like it) so I figure it might be hard to match.

If you don't think they can be fixed any idea how much a factory replacement will be? Sorry for the long story I was just so happy that PPF kept the paint from being hurt. Of course I will have to pay to have it put back on but that is OK

A reputable wheel refinisher in your area is probably who you need to ask if the wheel can be "fixed". Really my info is with high performance wheels is the auto maker does not sanction any repair that requires welding or machining. Just redoing the surface finish is about all that is permitted.

In one case I had a wheel on a car (Porsche 996 Turbo) scuffed up from a mule deer encounter. Wheel removed and sent off to be refinished. The wheel refinisher ruined the wheel and paid for a replacement wheel sourced from the factory. At that time -- circa June 2009 -- that cost the wheel refinisher nearly $2000.

So fix them while in jail or at home??????? 😁 You should be able to touch them up with paint.............. unless you're a hedge fund manager and want to spend a trillion on the work.

As mentioned a good wheel refinisher can make it look new again.

I'm hoping the wheel repair place near me can fix it. I had one done on my 2015 SRT 392 and it was just never right. Of course that wheel was a three or four stage process to paint/powder coat and I'm guessing this one can be done in one. If they can match the color that is.

I personally would buy a new wheel. I have several repaired and never right

 

[Carnage72]

Anybody know how much a factory wheel will cost? And a spot to get a good deal on one.

 

[baabootoo]

Several hundred for sure, if they are available. Have you looked yet?

 

[Carnage72]

I've looked but haven't been able to find any.

I have a 2020 Charger HC that I purchased in February. It came with the 20x11 Warpspeed Granite Wheels. I wanted an extra set for mounting all season tires on. I went to my local dealer and we could not figure out the part number. If you look at parts list for my Vin, all wheel part numbers show a picture of the devil wheels….
If you look at the back of your Warpspeed wheels you will see the part number 6UQ25TRAA. I was not able to find any info on this part number. With some help from Dodge Cares I got the part number to order. It’s 6UQ25MALAA. You can find them online for under 800 plus shipping. My local dealer wanted 1400 so I got mine online. They showed up last week and are exact match. Even part marked as 6UQ25TRAA. Note that if you look up online, some places have the wheel described as 9.5 wide...Not sure why MOPAR description states 9.5 as this is misleading.

Correction - Wheel is marked 6UQ25TRMAA

If you can afford a HC, you can afford Red Roof. Learn from this, you are very lucky.
