Ive heard they are good but i'm a firm believer of if you are going to get a wheel refinished, strip it and do it properly. Probably no different but i would feel better for it

Mine were a mess when I first went to look at it. I told the dealer and they got someone out to do them. You can't tell they were ever damaged now!

cheers for the replies , they said approx £75 a wheel so its gotta be worth a shot i suppose , anyone got rough estimates on a refurb from scratch

spit and polish are about £60 a wheel for a full refurb. only you just have to leave your car on bricks while they are away

Dave,

Had 2 of my pff7's done by them bout a year ago they had some fairly hefty scrapes on the spokes (no damage to the wheel just finish) and some kerbing.

They couldnt quite get the bright flitter colour right (a bit darker) but wasnt really noticable as the repaired ones were both on the same side of the car.

They do it in their van on your drive mine were all flatted down primed and completely repainted (same price if they just repair an edge). All in all a good job, you do get all the overspray on the inner rim so if you a person who likes to keep the inside of a wheel clean you need to get that off as its rough and holds dirt.

The finish has lasted well but after a year it is starting to chip in some places, nothing major but just small stone chips, whereas the original wheel finish, those on the other side have none.

Heres a couple of pics for interest.......
