About to do a darker shade of hyper black but with metallic flakes (per Mariano's suggestion). :P
Yes one stinking pothole did that. No these are not Varrstoens.

WOW, must have been a crazy pothole. The good news is that it's definitely fixable.

where did this happen? make sure you try and send the bill to wadot. see if they're consider paying you back. I got a blowout from a pot hole in seattle and they paid out almost $300 for a new tire...
