You are a city dweller, not exactly far from me. May I ask, where did you get wheels 'unbent' and how much you paid? I have a big dent on one of the wheels and considering getting a new wheel. The other two have not quickly noticeable dent.

I made the great trek north, and used these people
Top notch work, and they still gave me top notch service even though my job was a little more pedestrian then there usual stock and trade (when I rolled in, there was a 993 or two, Demon, couple Range Rovers, and IIIRC a sharp looking M5)
All the people that work there seem to take pride in what they do, Mario runs one of the cleanest shops I've ever seen
If a wheel is too far gone, or he thinks it won't be safe, he won't do anything to it
Just a heads up on pricing, it's roughly $200 a wheel for a full repair (weld/media blast/straighten/powdercoat)
He's got about 10 finishes on display on various rims, those are in stock and in the price
They can get in whatever color you want, but that can take a few days, and costs extra
It's a very good looking and tough finish, until the wheels were put on a shoulder height tire rack at my local tire shop, and fell through, hitting the ground...
I can still hear that ringing
, and seeing $875 worth of wheel repair go out the [censored] window
One got scuffed up bad on the face by the center bore, that's why its in the trunk, the other one just got a chip on the edge, which you can't really see with the tire on
Still [censored] tho
I however can attest that it's a very tough finish
