Overall cost including refinishing, shop labor to remove/reinstall tire, rebalancing, etc. was $230. Car rides much smoother now that the dent is out of the RF wheel.
Since you mentioned you were in Westchester, it's pretty local to me..so send me a PM if you want a good place to send out the wheel. Another option is Hubcap Haven, that will sell you a refinished wheel for $249.95. But you need to speek to them before ordering to determine if they are sending you a refinished wheel or a new knockoff, (if you care). I've gotten wheels from them and they have always looked like new from a dealer.

Thanks for the offer man but the place where I got them refurbished and Powder coated out in LI (Elite coatings) is only $125 for repair and repowdercoat gunmetal. I only paid $500 when I got the entire set done back in the summer.
