The best place to repair curb or bent wheels is Wheels America. Reputable company, have sent them 6-7 wheels in the past year or so, and all of them have been fixed perfectly. Its a flat fee of $125 per wheel.

Can also try Mag Masters in Santa Ana. They repaired two of my old 3-piece Work Meister S1s (both slightly bent on outer barrel) on my S2K and refinished them to factory look. Took about a week and cost a bit over $200. Pretty impressed with their ability to repair a multi-piece forged wheel

Shop I go through can replicate the anodized look. So they have to repolished all 4 wheels. It's much more shinier when they repolish all 4.
