2) I need a dent removal person. Someone hit my car RIGHT before I left and I can't stand looking at it

(also want someone good/not too expensive)

I also need a good carwash/detail so that info would be appreciated!

Plus, keep me in the loop when you guys have meets and stuff (please). I've been on the site since 05 and know some of the nicest cars are out HERE!!

Hi Imran, I'm Kalim. Welcome to the neighborhood.

Ditto on the above replies for recommended shops. Also, ticking might be low oil, so check that out if you haven't already.

Regular meets are every Friday in Fremont starting around 9:30-10ish (look for the new Friday night meet thread in the regional section, coming soon). Come hang out and meet some local owners. We've got a great bunch of people out here.

Does anyone know a good wheel repair shop in the east bay?
my sister curbed up the the whole rim on my dads GS430 and we're trying to fix it before he finds out and kills us.

TIA

I know a place in the South Bay, but that might be farther than you want to go.
Good luck, man.

last i heard my friend took his wheel there, it was less than $100. not sure though

Zoeb@WheelDude.com · 07-07-2010, 12:38 PM

just make sure you go in early and talk to Jose and not Sharon

Jose's cool, but you usually only catch him between 8:30 and 9
