Default rim repairs

inb4 search forums...

hey guys

I've searched the forums for a place to do rim repairs and contacted most of them. Most of them haven't gotten back to me (maybe closed down/retired) and the only one that has is Alliance but it seems like some of you have mixed feelings about them. Also they quoted me about 200ish to repair this (About the price of a new rim) (Rota)...

So can anyone recommend a place preferably SOR to get this fixed?

cheers

You can try Owen from Meltham Motors if you don't mind travelling to NOR.

Quality of work is top notch and Owen normally gets it done pretty quickly if its a small job

Buy another Rota. Keep the trashed one as a spare for when you inevitably kerb another one, that way you can swap them over and always have one on your car

ps: Owen

I've always just called him straight on his mobile and he's always helped me out (iirc, he does this in his own time outside of business hours).

Had a spoiler painted about 2 months ago, so I'm guessing he still does it?
