scratch on my car, Polish rims
Someone keyed my car on my driver side all the way to the rear well not all the way to the rear but almost close... I live in the boston , MA area any recommentation of what should I do or which shop should i go to to do a good job. I tried the factory scratch pen but it is useless.... I think I might just need to repaint the whole driver side again.... Also I have some 18's on my 2001 cl-s and the rims need to be polish again. I went to ALLOY WHEEL REPAIR, they want to charge me 100.00 each to polish the rims is that reasonable?

wow, I can't believe some fucker would do that... car's should be off-limits, IMO.
Anyways, I tried finding a place to refinish my rims around Boston last fall. Best deal I got was $80 each... I don't remember the company's name, but it was this wheel repair truck that comes right to yur driveway to do the refinishing.
Another place is http://www.rimandwheelworks.com/index.html ... they're in Waltham... haven't done any service there, but you might wanna give it a shot...
BTW, where around boston are ya from?

thanks for the info rockd. I will definately check it out...... I am from quincy, ma. I will still shop around for the polish rims issue but i don't think i should be paying a 100 each which I think is too much.... anyways what year and model you have and any mods done to your car

European Collision does really good work... if you are going to pay 400 bucks to refinish the wheels, you may as well buy some new ones. You can see my boy Nando at Boston Auto Salon on Brighton Ave, in allston.

Oh, I was recommending European Collison if you wanted to repaint your car not for the wheels, or you could just paint the wheels (color match) and leave the lip polished...

You'll see my car in front of SMG at Boston University every day.... in case you're ever around that area...
