Default Rim curb rash repair recommendations

So someone curbed my rim :?. It was some damage to it around 4-6 inches
Anyone have recs in So Cal for rim wheel repair?? I am looking for someone in the 626 that people have had good experiences with.

I have a 19inch gunmetal fixe axis rim- so I think it's more of a graphite color than the traditional straight alloy but I could be wrong about that... don't know if that's harder to match. I would consider the curb rash pretty mild - can I get this done for under $100?

thanks for the quick reply guys i'll definitely check these places out.

Blktc do you have a direct address for TWS, i tried googling them but i cannot find it.

BTW have any of you guys heard of Son Tran, heard he fixes curb rashes and does them well in beamer forums at a reasonable price!

I have a set of BBS with stainless lips, I have 4 dings from when the wheel shop mounted tires, how much do you guys think they'll charge, ballpark?

was quoted around $100-$110 by TWS for my curb rash but they advised me that it was not worth fixing so i'll probably just buy a new rim since it'll cost me $50-60 more.

Omar you can try googling "Son Tran curb rash", he does great work as I have read throughout the beamer forums unfortunately he is unavailable this month as I tried to contact him.
