    Default Bent Rim

    I went over a median at 30-40 mph (don't ask why) and my front left rim is bent (more like a dent). Is it possible to knock it back in with a hammer and a block of wood or am I going to have to shell out either $100 to get it fixed or somehow luckily find another rim somewhere? If anyone knows anyone locally with an ADR Ryver G6 17' 5 lug rim or (4) Lexus IS300 rims, lemme know.

    Other things:

    Also, does anyone know locally of a shop where I could pay them some money to use a lift for an hour or two?

    What about Koni Reds for an 1991 Acura Legend? I know I can get them for about $480 or so shipped, but I was hoping without shipping I could get them cheaper locally.

    that would be awsome, but I doubt you'll find a shop because of the liability issue. But just in case you do, let me know...lifts make work so much easier.

    i say charge them 60 for up to 3 hours, then 15 an hour after that

    if you work for 3.49hrs it should only be $65

    3.5hrs then 70

    4.0hrs then 75
