Bent Lip Repair

Postby fknjexx » Thu Feb 18, 2016 1:38 am

Hey guys,

I recently gutter rashed one of my wheels yesterday (dumb move), anyone know how much and where I could get it fixed in Sydney ? I've contacted barrel bros since I know they do an amazing job but still expecting a reply.. And hopefully it's within my budget 100-200max.

Cheers.

Usually for a bend like that they can just repair it by re-rolling the lip straight.

of course, if the alloy has stretched or the rolling leaves marks then it will need to be re-polished, which is relatively labour intensive and may add to the cost.
