Default Rim Repair

Well I was not paying attention to the road in front of my this morning and kissed a curb with my front wheel and put a nice scratch about 1/2 around my rim.

I have contacted 2 companies (got the number for another but they are not open yet) and gotten quotes and was wondering if anyone on here knows of companies in the OC area that can fix the rim. Mobile shops are a plus.

Velvet Touch: Mobile, $125
Wheel Revivers: Mobile, $175
Terry Wheel: Not Mobile, $130

Thanks.

How is Phil doing? We need to do another off road trip. I talked to my Jeep buddy yesterday. How about sometime towards the end of October?

Phil is doing good. We just got the 383 done in his Jimmy again. Turned out to be a bad oil pump that was causing the engine knock.

By Jeep buddy do you mean Jeff? I'm up for a run just let me know when you want to do it.

Alot of these wheel repair companies pick them up, and take them to Chuck at ABC welding. He fixes them, and they finish them off and add his charge.
Call Chuck at ABC Welding, 714-635-1575. Tell him Big Bird sent you. He is the guy repairing the Snake blower at this time.

Trying to get a feel for people who are on here who might need a rim or 2 cleaned up. The more rims I have the cheaper it will be. Hit me up if I can help get yours fixed.
