Wow!! That's exactly what happened to me. What type of lip was that? Chrome or polished? I just did the same to mine, mine is chrome though, there's only one local shop I called and they told me chrome couldn't be fixed, only alloy/polished, etc.

Also the OP or sniper please on me the company's details, I would take a trip to California to get this fixed for 100.

Btw nice fix, looks great!

Thanks all.

That does look like a nice fix. Judging by the pics, it doesn't look like anything happened to the wheel.

I called Son Tran once in 2008. The guy promised to repair my wheel on a MB before lease expired. I lived in So OC at the time and he is in Westminster. The dude then won't return my call. For no apparent reason what so ever. Not cool.

Called a few places, got a price tag of around 250-300 to send out and rechrome my wheel. My best bet is to just leave the curb rash there since its not too obvious.

surface scratches can always be fixed.
but.. if the hit changes the shape (oval) ... the only option is to replace it.
yup. Son was a nice guy. he goes everywhere within LA area. I got my friend's GTR rims (Special Paint) fixed just same amount of time as he did ur job.
