Default Need some advice on curbed volks

Currently have Le37's gunmetal w/ a polished lip. The front left wheel has a small curb rash, about 3 or so inches long, but its not too deep. I did a few searches on this site and from what i understand, the clearcoat is a bit different from other wheels. I've seen some posts saying that the finish may look different from the other 3 rimes if fixed. Is the difference pretty noticable, or does anyone have any pics? Also, where is a good shop to get it fixed, somewhere around the walnut area. Thanks.

Tru Wheel did a great job on my curb rashed and bent GTCs. Unfortunately I didn't take a before picture but I would definitely recommend them. You have to leave the wheel with them tho so you need another ride for a few days. They say a week but finished mine in a couple days.

Impex Motorsports fixed my curbed LE37 pretty well. Couldnt tell it was ever damaged. They fixed my friends HREs too. Good pricing and fast service(a couple of days). They are in San Gabriel.

thanks for the info, I just took a closer look and it is dented on the inside and outside lip (meaning, 2 dents), CRAP . Did they also clearcoat your wheel after??
