Default Rim curbage repair in Socal? Know anybody?

Okay, long story short, I let my friend's dad borrow my Z, and I come back to find my two front rims curbed the f*ck up, about 7 inches on one rim, 9 on the other. But, let's put the fact that I'm extremely upset about this aside, and talk about hopefully FIXING the rims.

So they're Axis Hiros, with polished lips. Is there any chance of getting these fixed, and does anyone know someone who could take care of it? Any idea of how much they'd charge?

Also, I learned my lesson... nobody's ever driving my Z again, ever. EVER. EVER.

there is magmasters.com which you can drop your car off or your wheels at, they are pretty cheap.

there is also Velvet Touch which will actually drive out to you and fix your wheels as long as the damage doesnt require them to take apart the rim. they are located in anaheim if you want to drive to them. they are more expensive but there work is top notch. PM me if you want my contacts info at Velvet Touch.

I will be giving Magmasters a call this week then, to see what they can do. It's not horribly deep, it's just long. Thanks.

Anyone else have any other places I can call for some quotes?

Not yet, been really busy. Will discuss it with him later this week, I'm not worried about it... if he doesn't pay for it, I'll call parking inforcement on the cars he has parked in his alley, he'll get tons of tickets.
