Any recommendations/suggestions for alloy wheel repair in the home counties area.

I have a couple of kerb marks on all the wheels!! and was going to get all 4 reground and repainted. The main concern was the paint match and the OZ stickers.

Cheers
Mark

Cool

I had a similar problem on one 17" Speedline(anthracite). I shopped around and in the end got in touch with Chips away who I was recommended to by Adams Aylesbury. Sorry, don't have the number to hand, bit call John - Service manager on 01296-434343 and he will supply tel.. no. Excellent repair, circa. £30 per wheel.

Had the same issue with my P1 wheels.

Spoke to "Wicked Wheels" who couldn't match the colour exactly and after spraying the whole wheel couldn't get the stickers...Not there fault. Just the way it is.

Also spoke to Prodrive, no stikers there either, as OZ wouldn't supply them.

So after 3 months, a complete respray with no stickers is the option (£200).

Scratch doesn't look to bad after time.

How bad was the colour match, if I get all 4 done the match is less important. How much was the cost if one wheel ?

Slight difference on colour to a P1 wheel, but it would be noticeable....

Price was based on the £50 per wheel that they do
