I'd go to MagMasters if I were you. For "normal" curb rash, they usually only charge $40. I found a lot of other shops will charge at least double that.

I saw the thread and this guy is amazing. I can't believe the pixs. I just bought a set of 166's and will be calling him tomorrow. The rims have some curbing and one has a pretty good gash. I will take pix before and after and post here. I could've gotten a set of M5 166's at Crevier for about 1600.00 but got these at a good deal. Hopefully I don't have to spend 300.00 to get them shined up.

Here are some pix of my 166's before I take them to Son Tran on tomorrow:

I had Son Tran do my Oem M5 166 Rims today in El Segundo, Ca. He works in LA mostly. I was at a meeting so it was perfect timing today. I posted the before pictures on this same thread. Take a look. All I can say is he does excellent work. He was very accommodating and friendly. I work in HR so I kinda get a feel for people. He is a professional too. His pricing is not as cheap as MagMasters but I would bet his attention to detail is par above theirs. I did call MagMasters and spoke to someone on the phone. A female. She was very nice but very non committal and said may take a few days. I asked them if they sold tires and got a "we can order anything" answer.

Here are the amazing pictures after the de-curbing, fixing, magic or whatever you want to call it. IT really is magic to me:

I would say give this guy a call if you need onsite Rim repair. I do wish he would've washed the rims for the price I paid.
