Badly need my wheels repaired
The two front wheels on my G35 are curbed pretty bad, I bought the car like this and in the amount of time I've owned it I haven't gotten a chance to get them fixed. Does anyone know of a reputable place that could fix them in the NY/NJ/PA area?
If you have experience with a place, it would have to cost less than it would for me to buy two wheels, if you get the picture. Thanks to anyone that can provide useful information

just buy some of those mag blue CE's in your avatar....that will take care of the rash 
Besides, I don't think I'll be putting $1000 wheels on a car I'm trying to sell.

sorry i wasn't useful lol
i only know of one wheel repair shop that does awesome work(i have yet to be at the shop without bently wheels and such lying around), but he will probably cost more than finding two used g35 wheels.

i know when i f'ed up my work, he said if i was a regular customer it was $400 to repair it. so 250 doesn't seem outrageous, but still too much if you're just looking to sell it.
btw, if you're just looking to sell it, i don't think it would be worth it.
do you really think you're going to get back the same amount when you sell it, as it cost you to repair the wheels? i mean if you think a few scracthes on the wheels are really going to make the difference between lets say, 15,500 and 15,800, (just two random numbers) and you're going to be paying about 200 or so to get them fixed, if it was me i'd say f it and just leave them the way they are.

Depending if your looking for a quick fix and how bad, I sanded my curbage down with a dremel and then rattle caned my ap2 v1's and I was amazed how good they came out.
