Sounds very tempting. How much do you think it would cost to repair just one curbed rim (Covers about 1/3 the lip)?

They gave an over the phone quote of $125-$155 per rim for repair/repaint.
Lifetime guarantee on paint peel damage.

I went there with my bent rim and they said at least 200 + to repaint and repair my rim.

Mine are gramslight in bronze. They have to heat it up and fix it which pretty much f*(ks up the paint so they will have to repaint it..

I went ahead and bought another one.

i'm getting one rim repaired, and it's costing me 250 dollars alone for them to fix a bend, and repaint my rim. Not to mention they've had the rim for the past 2 weeks and it's STILL not finished. i dont know what the **** is up with that but the turn around time is rediculous. I'm definitely going to post a review about this place, but unless they do something right for a change, it's not going to be a very pleasant review from the work/phone calls i've had with them so far.
