I have an ever so slight bend in my front chrome A-mold......It can be repaired.. Yet, I was told, since it was chrome, the chemicals used would damage the finish..

I'm in NY.....Anyone know a place where if possible, they can repair it ?

If not, which I'm guessing it can't, anyone know a company that sells them closest to production specs ( weight )..

JEGGS has them for $202 plus free shipping ....That's not bad...27 pounds..

Ye Ole Wheel Shop in Baltimore MD.

Unfortunately Ye Ole Wheel Shop closed down. I was fortunate to have them polish back to like new the used pitted FM 5's that I purchased. We lost a lot of talent and they were only 15 minutes from my home.

Picked up a tip on the Callaway Owner?s Group forums that Ye Old Wheel Shop is back in business.

Website is https://www.yeolewheelshopmd.net/

Hoping it is true as I have two sets of Gen II Dymags that need their attention.

Checked the map and it looks to be their old location.

The photo on the website is the original store. I will take a drive over today as it is close to my home and report back.

Just took a drive over and unfortunately the information was incorrect. Ye Old Wheel Shop is closed and out of business. Another company is at their location. I took this picture this morning.
