Have a Viggen?

If you have a Viggen, you likely have bent Viggen rims. I had 2 on mine. I was pissed that if you have them refurbished you cannot get a total paint match to OEM since SAAB won't release the paint code as they want you to buy new $370 rims (NOT!!).
If you want matching Viggen rims and don't want to pay for new ones, go to HubCap Heaven on Route 1/JD Highway in Alexandria. They straightened 2 of my Viggen rims WITHOUT having to repaint them. Both dents/bends were on the interior of the rims. Not sure if they can do it on the exterior - doubt it.
Anyway, it was $125 per rim, which is much better than paying more for an unmatched, refurbished one or even a new one at $370 or whatever the dealer wants.
Some have recommeneded a place Ye Olde Wheel Shop in MD, but it was WAY too far for me to go.
FYI. HupCap Heaven is great and the guys are cool and very helpful.
