Wheel Repair?

Hello~ All Acurazine TSX Members!!
I have some question for you guys...
Recently, I got some scratches on my rims..
I'm thinking to fix them..
So here are my questions..
1. Any good wheel repair shop around 909 and 626 area?
2. what is reasonable price?
3. Are those mobile wheel repair companies are trustable?
Please share some idea here.. Thank you!

Here is links to look at my rims..

I don't know about all "mobile repair" companies or those that offer it but the last time I used something like that I wound up in worse condition. It will cost me almost $1k to fix their mistakes.

I would find a reputable establishment. Just google for wheel repair around your area. Drive out there. Get a feel for them. If you don't like them or they seem shady, drive away. That is some pretty good road rash too. Hope they don't have to grind off too much. And don't feel that you can't ask for proof of his work. If he wants your business, he'll be more than happy to show you examples that he's done because you'll tell your friends about the awesome wheel work he's doing. If you find someone that just doesn't seem to care, then trust me, they really don't.

Rates will vary as well. Average $120 to start and then on up from there per wheel.

Good luck. And stay away from the curb.

It won't cost you an arm and a leg. Well, depending on your budget. It happens. It sucks. But I know what you mean about wanting your car to be "right." Driving around in a car like this with banged up rims makes you feel like your driving some beater. And you won't really know what it'll cost until you visit a shop. It may be a bit cheaper than you think. Again, good luck. And next time whip the valet before you give 'em your keys.
