Ian,
Western wheel craft is probably a good choice....
If you go to Rainbow, ask for Steve 604-521-0899....tell him Max with the orange integra sent you.

i dont recall how deep the scratches on your rim were....but if u want to just recoat it it actually covers up pretty well if its not too deep...u'd need to get the wheel blasted first (should be about 20 to 30 bucks) and then coated (30 to 40ish).

Stay far away from NuBright!! They are a joke.
I was run off the road in my 06 Jetta by a Dodge Ram asshole a couple years ago. Curbed 2 brand new wheels. I went through ICBC and a body shop to have the passenger side wheels repaired and the drivers side rear door.
The bodyshop by mistake sent out the 2 drivers side wheels to Nubright to have them repaired. As i Said, they were brand new. 5 days old to be exact. Nubright decided to strip them down and paint them anyways. Charged the body shot $400 to do this. I went to pick up the car aaaand the Wheels were a different colour. and the damaged wheels were untouched.
3 weeks later..... get my car back after having all 4 wheels redone. Now its winter time... Wheels came off and put away.
Fast forward to spring. Wheels were put back on the car and in 3 weeks, the paint was peeling off.
All 4 wheels went back to Nubright.
Got them back in 3 weeks. WRONG COLOUR!!!!!
Sent them back, 3 weeks later, Back on car.
8 weeks go by, Guess what? Paint peels off.
Send them back, 3 weeks later Back on car.
Finally got it right, just in time to take them back off again.

I'm gonna give Green's a try for my bent rim. I've used these guys in the past and they've been good, expensive, but good. The job was done well and right the first time. I was going to try Nu-Bright as they've been recommended by my dealer (Cap VW) and some other folks, but Hollis' review above has freaked me out. I'll report back.

LOL....oh shiet. I better not go there...you should sue their ass!
My dealer says they can retouch up mine for $80(then again they might take it to some low class place I don't know about, like the time I bought my car, it was suppose to get a wash and wax....looked like just a quick rinse since it was around 4ish everyone was itching to go home.)
