Very peeved as last week on the way home from work a lady changed lanes at Gordon and gave me the choice of a new front wing and bumper or grinding my wheel up against the kerb......unfortunately I like Gordon as he is and opted for the kerb :(

Anyway long story short (she did stop and apologise and was totally gutted she'd caused me to wreck my wheel) I've found someone who repairs polished wheels in Cornwall.

They'll pick up from Plymouth, take the wheel away, strip it, paint it and re-machine it.

Oddly enough they are called the Polished Wheel Company............

.....will post pics on this thread of the damage when I stop crying, and then will post an after pic.

BMW and a few other main dealers in Plymouth use them so they're hopefully up to scratch....interestingly a new wheel is £230+vat which I didn't think was all that bad tbh
 
I need to get one of mine done but not looking forward to find out the cost :lol:
 
Took mine to a wheel specialist thursday, they said they couldn't get hold of the paint that is used on them, what colour inserts have you got and have you got any details for the company you are going to use

Thanks
