Had an altercation with a curb while attempting to get out of the way of an old dear who took a liking to my side of the road round a bend. Wheel is far from happy and tyres have a chunk taken out.
I’ll go and speak to the tyre place tomorrow but I would prefer not to have to replace my tyre as it’s only a few months old... my suspicion is it will have to go though

Peeled the splitter apart on my 1 month old car, was not much fun as it had also been glued. It will now be repainted correctly to gloss black rather than body colour.

The tyre is definitely done for.
The wheel has a crack running from the most severe rim abrasion. You need a wheel specialist to look at that, not just a regular tyre shop.
A welded repair may be possible, but it would need to go to someone who really knows what they are doing rather than just a garage that has a TIG welder.
I'm exceptionally interested in this post, dying to fit the reversing cam. Would you keep me posted on how you get on?
Sure.
The camera was delivered the other day, just waiting for adaptors and then I'll be doing it.

Mine has been connected to an optimate 6 once a month during the winter (as I dont travel far) for the last couple of years with no problems.

Just need to add that I have added the permanent connection supplied with the Optimate which makes it easier and safer to use on a regular basis.
