    Repairing mag wheels in Christchurch?

    I need some help from the boys please. I have a car that I love nearly as much as the bike, but the mag wheels have curb and pothole damage. I've been quoted $180 each for repair and paint. Is this price about right?..or is it cheaper to buy new ones. I've no idea!

    Elite wheels are vg in repairs. I had a set repainted by a paint shoprecently. Approx 65$ a wheelbut no repairs needed. Not very impressed with the results. Quality job equals $$.

    Depending on the damage thats pretty much in the ballpark

    Elite wheels are generally quite good but can be slow, both Royce Clive and Thorpe Engineering can do wheel repairs but not the painting
