You'll get what you pay for if you want it done right. If you bang aluminum out with a hammer, it will become porous and leak. It needs to be heated and then put on a lathe and spun to make sure it balanced. All this takes time and for someone to know what they are doing. There are a few of these services that use a truck with the equipment built inside to do the jobs on the spot and travel to dealerships which have a lot of these problems with aluminum wheels. Most jobs like this can cost around $100.00. Better off looking for a set of wheels that don't have damage and just sell this wheel or junk it.
