I basically shaved around 1/4 inch off both drivers side rims today, taking the island on Paramatta Rd Homebush today a little too close (if anyone was in the area and heard some really loud profanity, that was just me).
The first time I've gutter scratched by beloved VXRs, I'm clearly "gutted". How much average to get a wheel repaired?

Done the same thing to my VXR's it hurts more inside ay and you cant stop thinking about it! i got quotes between $80-$140 a wheel
I got it done at bob jane at Drummoyne (just because it was the closest bob jane to me) for i think it was around $85 a wheel and they did a really good job, took em like 2 weeks but becuase the paint was hard to match up so they ended up re-spraying them all.. but over all they did a good job and i cant complain!

I did a bit of research into this for a friend not too long ago and ended up being $150 a rim and they respray all rims to make sure the colours are all the same incase its slightly out.

I haven't personally used them, but it's where Bob Jane recommends people go and they've also had good reviews on other forums. They're happy to work with couriers as well which is always good.
