wheel repair
So I hit a set of potholes and dented both front wheels! 
does anyone have any positive experiences with wheel repair shops? I want to send all four wheels to get details and polished back to new and the two dents fixed.
thanks in advance,
scott

dont you have HRE's?
best bet is to send them back to them. When I curbed one of my IForged wheels, I couldnt get anyone to repair a 3 piece wheel, they all said its hard to get them to seal back up.

Sorry to hear that and luckily that you have 3 piece wheels 
It is pretty easy fix if you can just buy the outer lips from HRE and replace by yourself
I have done that on my CCW classic wheels and the outer lips were just $100 a piece from John.
