Finally they repainted them with orignial Lambo paint. The job has been done absolutely perfect. They look better than new as the original ones on the left side still have some scratches from a machine wash !

Expensive drink. What was it.

I drove on a windy road into the evening sun with about 100km/h and in a wide left turn a motorcycle comming ahead moved to my side. I immediately turned the wheel a little to the right but that was enough to hit a 50m long curb. There was enough room to the motorcycle but I saw it very late due to the low sitting sun and it freightend me. It caused a pretty loud bang on both the passenger side wheels. Most because of the front spokes were hitting the curb. The rear also got scratched but repair was "only" $400. Now they look better than new :)
