Fix or leave?

Living in NYC sucks. Got the car in July. So far, these are the damages. Should I repair or leave it? It’s a lease. I usually take really good care of my cars. Just having bad luck with my first BMW. All the damages are from others except the tire scuff, this is my first curb rash.

if you gotta zoom in with a camera phone to see the damage, then it probably isn't worth fixing.

Greetings,

It appears as if you might need some assistance parking your car against the curb. Since the appropriate training techniques is not going to happen. You might consider the following: continue parking your car against the curb with increasing degrees of damage; and, at the end of your lease replace the two horribly damaged wheels with new ones and be done with it.

I would fix these issues. Because when you go to turn in your vehicle at the end of your lease, all these discrepancies will be noted, and you will have to pay for the repairs.

Unless the damages are really bothering the OP, I would wait until right before the lease ends to fix everything in case there are any additional issues that occur.
