19" Wheel Repair

Hey guys -

I won't go into details about how it happened, but my wheels were curbed when my car was being moved in my parking garage over the weekend (joys of having a car in NYC). I have the 19" forged wheels and wanted to see if there was any way to get these repaired.

I've heard its more difficult than standard alloy wheels... I tried to search the forum but didn't see anything.

I will snap some pics when I take the car out next - it's not bad, but about 1/3 of the rear wheel has a thin scrape at the very edge of the alloy wheel and much smaller on the front wheel.

Thanks,

-Todd

http://wheelcollision.com - I've had them refinish two sets and they did a great job. My friend also bought a set from them that were great. I assume their repair work is also top notch.
