It was a beautiful day today and decided to take my E60 to local beach. I went too close to the curb while parking, as I was over cautious to avoid door ding from the sports cars parked next to mine. Now I have a about 3 to 4 inch rash on my front right (Style 138) wheel. I am really upset. Do any one know good wheel repair (curb rash repair) shop near Southern CT, NY or NJ. I would prefer some one near Stamford.
Thanks guys!
PS:I searched the forum and found few threads suggested shops in CA but none in tristate.

1st off, that SUCKS! I did this about 10 years ago in an old camaro I had....leaving a toll booth, scraped badly on the whole driver side....that is not a good feeling at all.
If what Cal mentions doesn't pan out for you, lob a call into your local BMW service center. I'm pretty sure they could help you get in touch with who they use for refurbushing CPO vehicles etc. Good luck!
