    Longevity would be the question. I think they look fine.

    Yup looks good, had to look for the spot on the tire to guess the area.

    Had to zoom way in to look for imperfections.

    Looks good to me.

    I see it the repair area doesn't seem to have the same shine as the rest of the wheel. Maybe that's your concern OP?

    Bottom lower right I see some marks that could be something but, if the finish is good not a problem.

    Why are you looking for a 2nd opinion? What is it you're unhappy about? The majority of us seem to be unable to spot any lingering remnants of the damage.

    I guess I see something on the small spoke to the right of that, but cannot tell from that picture whether it's a reflection or lighting artifact, or whether it's because of a bad finish. OP needs to provide several more pictures that are closer up and specific to his area of question.

    Just to clarify I am happy with the work and would recommend the guy that did it.

    Just wanted a second opinion to see how transparent the work looks to someone other than me.

    Thanks for the feedback.
