aftermarket wheel repair????
Ok so a few days ago my car had a minor bump at work and my rim was damaged.
Wheels are 19 inch staggered Ro_ja r2-7's
The damage is only on the lip, not on spokes or anything, there is no cracks, it's mainly just curbage with some rash and some bits of metal missing along a part of the rim but it's nothing too drastic in my opinion.
As if it wasn't already bad enough that my wheel is damaged, a few places here said over the phone they could fix it, turned out in person that they couldn't.
Main reasons were that it was either or both
1) 2 piece (outer lip is aluminum inner is stainless)
and
2) forged and are aftermarket - machine would screw up the wheels.
I'm in complete disarray and I just want your guys' feedback on what to do.
These wheels are discontinued and I'd love to get some info if you know what I can do or can refer me to anyone.
The places I have went to that turned me down was WheelsAmerica and TransWheels.
I'm located in the Chicago suburbs.
Thank you.
PS: pic of my rims (before accident)

I'll try and get pics of the damage later today

I just got back from Kenosha, WI. Got referred there to a guy by a few people I know who said he does miracle work so I shall see in a few days how it all turns out and I'll have an update then.
