Advice to repair curbed custom wheels

I just curbed my iForged wheels recently, no idea what I was doing like an i****. Curbed the right back wheel about a few inches. Anyone have any advice on how to fix them or in las Vegas or cali, any good shops to fix custom wheels? Any advice appreciated thanks.

My wife curbed our Daytonas when we had them. The guy we took the rim to for repair was highly recommended, and when he was done you'd never know the rim was damaged.

Just make sure to get good referrals and you should be fine.

It's just hard to find companies that can repair chrome lips.

I don't mind driving to Cali to fix my wheel. The wheel is black but the lip is chrome I'm pretty sure.

They have a machine that will pretty much sand the entire lip where its curbed until its gone and smooth. theres a company here in texas called wheel america that will do it. also vrwheels in california and a company called wheelflip can help you out on getting your wheels fixed refinished relipped redrilled. everything.
