Why Women Should Not Be Allowed to Have Nice Wheels

This is one of the 20" AMG wheels I installed as part of my ML550 update project. My wife decided to introduce it to the curb:

Sadly, that's only part of the damage. I don't even know if the wheel can be salvaged, but I'm calling Wheel Collision Center tomorrow. Anyone else have names of other high quality wheel repair facilities?

I've used Alloy Wheel Repair with a lot of success.

where are you located?

I know places here in SoCal that will fix that for under $30.

I've had lots of wheel repair work done for my Audi(running multi-piece 20s).
