    repair or replace?

    Long story short:

    I recently imported a 2005 Avant USP. All of the rims have some pretty severe rash and the paint is flaking severely. Three of the four rims are bent.

    I've been calling around to different places to see about a repair/refinish. Based on the prices I've been quoted, I'm starting to (more or less) get into the same financial territory as some replicas I've been looking at.

    So here's a couple questions for you guys:

    Anyone know a credible wheel repair shop in the GTA that won't rip me off?
    Any reason to stick with OEM vs a good quality replica?
    Aside from strength, paint quality and weight, what makes a "good" rep?

    Price ??? Getting Audi logo caps does finish the look though.
