Wheel repair suggestions
Hi I picked up my 01 z06 a few months back and the previous owner was not quite as skilled (or ****) about his rims as I am with my cars and managed to curb rash the right side some (not horrible but annoying to me). I would rather not have to pick up a new set of rims and just get these repaired and cleaned up. Any recommendations (hopefully with personal experience) for shops that do this sort of work would be appreciated. I may even look into giving them a powdercoat and a lip polish for that "motorsport" look without the +10lbs per wheel 
Thanks in advance

These guys do great work, I'm sure there are similar companies in CA.

You may also look into http://www.wheel-repairs.com/ They polished up the lip on my motorcycle wheels that had some pretty deep casting and spin marks in them. Looks almost like chrome now. Only took 1 or 2 days for them to do the work and they were REALLY cheap compared to everyplace else I talked to.
Some pictures half way down the page of http://www.isitfast.com/Noharleys.htm (Blue Yamaha). Can't really tell to much from the pictures though.
