Default Wheel Repair shop in san francisco

Does anyone know a place around san francisco that can repair some curbing on a wheel? My gf curbed one of her rims, which happens to have a polished lip, and all the places i have called that I found on yelp wont touch wheels with polished lips, only wheels that are painted. Any help would be appreciated.

A guy at a local shop (Half Moon Bay) has a guy who repaired my polished lipped wheel. I'll ask him.

If you look closely, you can still see where it was curbed, but it's straight and polished, not real noticeable.

In Santa Clara will do polished lips. I think a minor curb rash will be about 130-175 per/wheel.

I used Rite-way once on my old BMW. My Ex-wife had curbed one of the wheels. The wheel looked perfect when I got it back from them. I took it in to get new tires put on the next week and the tire mounting machine pulled the repair out and it looked like it had never been repaired.

Rite way is great.

Dent Wizard also does a great job but they are harder to get a hold of. My lambo dealer uses them and it came out perfectly on a very hard to match color. 800 dent wiz

I've used Wheel Repair Solutions on Mill Street in San Rafael on 3 of my cars. (MBZ sedan, BMW M Roadster, & 997 c2s cab)

They've done a great job each time, but always come in at least $100 over the quote, sometimes $200- so just add 200 to whatever they quote & you won't be disappointed.

They have all the machines you could imagine, and do really good work which they stand behind. I think pricing lands somewhere between 160 & 185 per wheel. I would imagine a polished lip is a little over 200 per.
