    Default Gutter Rash Repair - Inner West Sydney

    Just curbed it and got a scuff round my rear rim

    Can anyone recommend a good place to get fixed in Sydney's Inner West? I did a search and the only recommendation was in the Gong!

    Mate. There is a place called "Mag Man"(I think) unit 2, 21 moxon road punchbowl(off canterbury road) that repairs rims. I donk know how much it is to get rims repaired

    Hope this helps mate.

    Thanks mate, someone else recommended Magman and also Neales Wheels, so will give them both a ring when I eventually get round to it.

    I rotated the wheel post repair to get a better picture. (note name on tyre to indicate same position on rim)

    That was about 45 mins work to clean, grind, buff, then colour code match and spray (inc clear coat). Driveable in 3 hours they tell me but left it overnight to be sure.
    Front wheel drive cars are the work of the Devil.

    This is pretty similar to my gutter rash. Can I ask how much it was?

    I called Neale Wheels today and he said my SV6 wheels are pretty expensive to repair. Possibly $300 per wheel but wanted me to bring it in to do a proper quote.

    Thanks mate, will give them a call. This is the extent of mine (back wheel is slightly worse than this front wheel)

    Lol waste of money... you could buy wheels for this.

    I heard about $120 per wheel. That was the mag man. My rims are something like $245 each brand new i wouldn't be paying alot more than $80 per wheel.
