Default OUCH!

Driving up to pay at the Satellite Parking Blue lot at OIA I was a little to close to the curb. I was half asleep... the outcome:

Anyone know if Turbax is open on Saturday? Any guess as to what this will cost. It's a fairly easy repair in the big world of bent rims and what not. I figure up to $200 max. Cheaper than a new one for $350. Need to get it fixed ASAP, I hate driving around looking ghetto.

Is the lip polished or painted?

Default hmm, I know polished wheels are a lot harder to fix. Let me know who you get to do it.

I want to get my CH's refinished before I stick a new set of tires on them which should be in a few thousand miles. All 4 of mine are scratched or curbed up.

Default Well another guy did the same to one of his RE's, although not as bad

He dropped it with MotoPersona and they fixed it for $150. Says he can't tell the difference. Downside is he said I may need to drop off 2 wheels so they can match it. But if they have a good section of lip on the same wheel, I don't think it would be necessary. I'm going to call Turbax Monday and hope they are open, they are supposed to be good.
