Default Looking for shop to repair wheel

Can anyone recommend a good shop to repair a scratched wheel? Good 'ol wheel works scratched 2 of my TE37's, one was minor, but the other was pretty bad. Oh ya, they also managed to hit something into my driver side and scratched the car.

Btw, this is the second time I have had problems with Wheel Works. First one was in Santa Clara near 101. This one is near Stevens Creek. First time was a scratch on my steering wheel in the 350z. Now I have to deal with a huge scuff mark on a new G35 Coupe.

you are in some deep trouble. the TE37s have an anodized finish that noone can repair.... even Performance Nissan could not find someone too. if you can, it's real expensive.

I ended up powdercoating mine. good luck.

I recommend http://www.wheeltechniques.com/
The customer service is rough around the edges, but the work is top notch!

Smile Wheel techniques

The wheel techniques folks polished the wheels on my Porsche. Did a great job.
Have used them since to mount / balance my tires/wheels.

If I get the wheels on my Z polished, they will be the people doing the work.

They don't have a comfortable lounge w/ a TV but you get good results.

Sorry to hear about your wheels. The Nissan dealership in Elk Grove scratched my TE 37's too. They have a person who comes in to work on their used cars that they recommended. One of those mobile wheel repair people. I was skeptical, but when I picked up my car, I couldn't even tell where the work was done. Everything looked brand new!

I scratched one of my wheels this weekend in Berkeley and will try to get it repaired through the same person.

Good luck with yours.
