local owners with vsxx.. where do you go to get your rash repaired?

i know the vsxx lips are anodized and not sprayed.. has anyone taken to a place that's fixed the clear coat and hasn't had any problems? how much did you pay? and what's the turn around? thanks.

PM "ohsobad" and ask him for mike's (i think that's his name) info. this guy is the absolute best at what he does. i wouldn't go to anyone else. the guy is located in anaheim. his work is magic. i've never seen anyone else repair wheels with anodized lips the way he does. the wheel looks brand spanking new after.

I've had my VS-XX rashed, but just bought new ones. Chris at F1 said that you can re-order just the lip or the barrel. You can also try http://www.truwheel.com/ , I heard they were really good, but can't vouch for them.

yeah my first time was pretty bad because my vsxx lip was also ruined if he can strip the clear coat and redo another way while polishing up the whole thing i wouldn't mind as long as they can do it

Depending on where you live, this place was recommended by F1 and they
did a great job on my Volks....TRU WHEEL 1-800-F.I.X.A.W.H.E.E.L They
charged my $125 per wheel.

no this isnt TODD.. todd is a mobile guy and does great job on OEM stuff and became really good at polished after going through me but yeah he kinda failed the first few jobs.. what happened with Mike's JP we actually sent it to Mike in the end at velvet touch to rechrome everything.

this is the same Mike that Alex goes through / velvet touch (Actual velvet touch not subleted work)

Did they repolish and re-clearcoat the entire lip too?
