Bent rim... need a vendor or someone 2 help me...
aite guys... im 2 seconds from kicking someones ***... dont care who but wutever... It was raining today and it was kinda late, and there was a pot hole that was filled up with water and I ran over it at around.... 40 miles an our, and the outer edge of my rim bent... I dont know if there is a way to fix this on the racing hart cp-f tune... because they are 1 peice and cause they ahve the hyper black finish... Anyways if any vendor knows if I can get these fixed at a reasonable price or at worst how much and how long a replacement would take... it would be great. god... i swear I wish I had bought 3 peice forged without hyperblack finish.... so easy to fix no matter what happens. Any help would be grealy appreciated. Thx.

u guys dont seem 2 understand. This is a 1 peice rim. Also it has a hyper black finish. The chemical that is used to do the hyperblack finish is illegal in the US meaning.. hyperblack rims are IRREPAIRABLE IN THE US!!!

They can get it pretty close to perfect. I feel your pain, I've done this sooo many times and kept replacing rims instead of getting them fixed.

and you would be surprised how close some good wheel repair shops can match the finish on black chrome wheels. my friend had all 4 of his ssr proffesors (that are the same color) bent and curbed really bad ... instead of bieng round 2 edges of the wheel came down and made a "v' about 6 inches long, the entire wheel was scraped up. the place that fixes our wheels made them look brand new ... you couldnt tell that they were repaired.

Why did you ask for help in the first place if you are now going to chastise people for offering suggestions on where to get it fixed? [/QUO
i was wondering if there was a repair place outside of the US that mite be able to fix it, or curious how much a front rim would cost to purchase.
