    Hello all, 2019, I4, SR, SX. When I was cleaning my wheels today I noticed that I have a chip. Does anyone know the best way to fix the chip ? Thank you for any help in advance, I appreciate your time and help. 2 Pics of the wheels below, the wheel and a close up of the chip. Thank you.T1.jpgTC.jpg

    I'd clean the wheel really well and hit the spot with matte black touch-up and be done with it.

    gently take the edge off of the chip. I then like to use blue painters tape and an exacto knife. I place the tape over the chip and rub it to get the outline of the chip and cut out the tape. Then paper off the area and couple light coats of flat black and your good.
