^^^ 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.

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.

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.
