Curb damage at Oceans and Autos car show not bad but will need a replacement.

Have a body shop look at it that does carbon repair or specifically a carbon repair shop they’re actually really easy to fix. I got a little Nick in mine and you would never know it was there after the repair.

Be careful. With carbon, there's a VERY fine line between a cosmetic repair and a structural repair. While many shops may be able to make a wheel APPEAR to be perfect again, there's risk of structural failure. Remember the submarine....

I talked with them and will send it and damage does appear cosmetic but still want a replacement.

Maybe you should take a refresher driving class at Sears Roebuck.
