    Default kudos to Andre for wheel repairs

    I had some deep gouges in both front 18" M wheels.
    This guy knows his stuff. Cannot even find a trace of gouges. The wheels are like new...worth the cost for nice rims!
    Highly recommend!!

    Andre is the man. When I hit a pothole with my ADV1's he fixed the small scuff and matched the paint perfectly.

    Is he with Kwiksilver wheel repair? I need my 4 20" factory rims on my Regal all redone.... fucking curb scrapes, damn these rims scrap easily.....
    What can I expect for such a thing? is it about $100 per wheel?

    Have had work done from him in the past and can't say enough good things. Not sure if he still does but one of the times he drove over to my place and fixed the rims. At least used to provide a wheel repair service.

    Andre fixed a bent wheel for me and it was super convenient. Called him while driving around and he said he could meet me right away. He fixed my wheel in the parking lot while I went to grab lunch. Pretty awesome service!

    Roughly how much does it cost for fixing things like curbrash? Or is it variable depending on the condition?

    His prices must have gone down or the price is contingent on what needs to be done. A few years ago when I had my badly curbed matte black rims repaired it was $150/wheel. Or maybe because they were matte black and it was a hard paint to match.

    Yeah Kwicksilver is $100 per wheel maybe even less sometimes. They're mobile too. I've always gotten mine and other peoples wheels fixed from him. He matches the paint perfectly

    AWR screwed up my 19" Privat's badly once. Simple refinish, just a few chips on the spokes from being laid flat by a dumb friend of mine, and he fucked it u bad enough twice I couldn't even put the rims back on because the match was so bad. He then washed his hands of it and never righted the wrong. 2 bit operation if you ask me, can't even match a silver rim with a cleared polished lip
