^^^ What Chocco said, I got quoted a ridiculous price to fix less than an inch of gutter rash, but u know what? ill do it... you know why? coz they pretty much have the monopoly. Bastards...

I actually wonder if it would be cheaper to buy a new rim.. I might look into that.

Pending on the condition Damon, if its only surface scratches on the paint. Get them sand/bead blasted then powdercoated or two pak painted.

[QUOTE=stebaun]oh yes haha

alliance rim repairs is currently patching up one of my rims.. they do painting too
however its suppose to take 10 working days (monday to saturday) but its been 3 weeks and they still haven't done it..[/QUOTE]

Hahaha, ROFL...my experience exactly. Don't let me get started! They take ages!

The painting and quality of the job was really s&%t as well. When one of the tyres was being removed to get replaced, the paint was stripped. It is now all coming off. The other thinng is the colour matching...I asked for 02STi gold...they gave me some greeny olive looking colour. In the end I got an original Subaru one new. Oh yeah, the rim repair was extreemly unbalanced as well. :mad:

serious? fuck..
my rim is bent in 3 places gonna cost 135ish.. should have bought another fucking rim instead. he said its gonna be ready tomorrow.. where was your one cracked? mine is on the inner lip on the inside of the wheel so no hideous painting..

agentorange 14-02-2007 12:48 PM

I clipped a kerb at about 60km/h. Fairly nasty damage. A piece about 10-12cm by 3cm thick was bent in the opposite direction.

hmmmm. Mine cost about 200$ to fix.

stebaun 14-02-2007 12:50 PM

wow thats probably why it was so unbalanced haha
i have a feeling im gonna call them up tomorrow and they will say another few days..
