Default #%@$ hit the curb!!!!!

Let a buddy drive the car inside a parking garage (didn't think he could do too much damage inside a garage) and BAM! Turning right he hit a small curb (...in his defense, I didn't see it as well). Anyway, got a 1.5" deep scrap/ding on the outside of the lip of the right rear wheel...ooooowwwwchhh!!!

Where can I get this fixed in S. CA??? It is driving me crazy and has only been there since lunchtime! Anyone have any expereince with getting wheels fixed? Wheels have only 3,000 miles on them and it's also the same wheel that just had a flat a week ago (damaged the sidewall) and had to buy a brand new tire...WTF?

Any ideas on where to fix would be appreciated...I'm in the South Bay Area.

Talk to my buddy Sander @ The Wheel Supply. Unfortunately he's in Walnut but he can get your wheel repaired.
