Default wheel repair shops - East Bay?

Anyone know of a good wheel repair shop who can smooth out a small scratch and match a gunmetal powdercoat finish? Hit a pot hole during the rains, didn't dent it, but it looks like the edge of the pothole put a small scrape on the wheel. Thanks in advance.

I don't know anyone. But if you find someone please let me know. I have a small scratch on one of my gunmetal rims as well.

There's couple places in the Bay Area that are pretty good.

Check out
Team III Wheels in San Leandro (510.895.8152)
Wheel Techniques in Cambell (408.866.5859)

I'm sending my wheels out to Wheel Techniques to get the lip polish. If anyone wants, I can send our wheels out together and maybe get a better price.

I'm not sure but I think they don't fix multi-piece wheels.
I send a lot of business to Wheel Techniques because they can do almost anything from fixing small damage, powder coating, polish lip, re-drilling.

Moodie, I can call them on Monday to see how much they'll charge for polish your rims.
