Where did you get your lip repaired in the Bay?

I didn't get it repaired in the Bay Area; but I know someone in Walnut Creek does that. Let me find out which shop and I'll let you know.

To be fair to HRE, I'll say this: While it may have been a fair price for what they were gonna do, it's not what I could or wanted to pay. Keep in mind they included all new nuts and bolts, powder coat the spokes and polish the lip: Approx $1500, not including shipping (from the east coast to the west coast)
