guttered my back wheel :(

Driving in the city today down a narrow lane way, I guttered the back driver side wheel of my under 2 month old car.

Spewing!!!

Can any one recommend a good wheel repairer???

Thanks!

I had them prep my E90's alloys for sale. Did a great job at my office. No inconvenience having to go to them.

Went to Wheel Solutions in Richmond (recommended by my dealership) and they quoted $100 for the wheel as it has to be machined etc. Me thinks that I will just leave them and maybe fix it up later...

I did the the same to one of my wheels and i couldn't have the damage so had it repaired. I have the Luxury line so with the polished lip it wasn't a simple fix. Apparently there can be an issue with the new clear coat peeling so after it was machined the entire polished area, not just the lip, had to be clear coated. Cost me $250 but it is perfect!

now my front wheel has it too...

i think i will just leave them until all 4 are done. then i may get a bulk discount
