Wheel Repair
I have to send my Grand Sports out to get the polished lip repaired as I took out a huge chunk last night hitting a curb while trying to avoid another curb 
Anyone know of any good reputable shops in the area?
Its just a polished aluminum lip, and Im pretty sure the place that makes the wheels OE Wheel Distributers sells this because their the first part to take road rash. I just need to find someone who can do that stuff. Theirs a quater sized gash on the passenger front & rear wheel. Tires are still on them right now as well.
Thanks in Advance.

My rim on the IROC was so F'ed up..a huge chunk of the lip was ripped off and scrapes and scratches all over it...$100 and it looked brand new..they welded in a new piece of metal for the lip, repainted the gold on the wheel and polished everything.

Yeah probably, but Im gonna have a spotter guide me in
It'll probably still have the gash in them, Im alittle short on extra fun cash so I may wait to send the 2 wheels out during the winter, when Im rocking the Salad Shooters.
