OUCH!!
That sucks.
I had a rim repaired on one of my old cars and it didnt turn out the same. It fixed the bend but was polished and ended up little on the dull side. GL with it and hope it turns out well.

Might as well just rebarrel all the wheels for that price, it isn't bad at all. Go wider!

And for everybody saying they don't like those wheels... what the hell? Would you rather prefer all the volk/ wheels that every z is rocking on these forums? Those wheels are one of a kind and have a special throw back look. Shame on you!

I just received the wheels back today and it looks great besides some small blemishes. wheels looks almost new again. My only gripe is that they put too much silver base on the gold so it look slightly lighter than my other two wheels. but I am planning to get those two repainted anyways so no big deal.

My overall experience with RimSpec has been great. It took them a week to do the repair and 3 days shipping each way. So about 2 weeks total from the day i shipped it off to the day i got them back.

Everything cost 331.00 for anyone wondering.

Now for the pictures





i didnt take any good before pictures but here they are again. I hit the rear wheel so hard that it actually bent 1/4 of the rims inward but you cant tell in the pictures. They were actually alot worse than what is pictured.
