Local Wheel Repair? CT/NY?

Mehale · 07-20-2010, 03:28 PM

I have a powder coated 19" matte black (or Solar Black i think its also called, like 30% gloss, 70% matte) VMR v710. I curbed it, and now a 2" silver around the outside is making me cry every time.

Anyone know a good guy in the area?

How much does a typical repair cost? ($150?)

How good do they match the powder coats, will i be able to tell its different against the other 3 wheels?

I'll vouch for Al's Hubcaps (Mineola, NY) as well. Recently had some nasty curb rash fixed and the quality of the work was top notch. Excellent paint match and you could never in a million years tell where the repair was done. Prices are reasonable as well.

Shops looks like a dump, but don't let that fool you...their work is on point. I think the going rate is around $85/wheel.
