Title: Wheel refurb
Post by: test_richie on 12 March 2009, 10:47: Right i know there has been a few posts about this so thought i would post up what happened to me last week.

Spoke to my dealership (where i got the car from) about one of my wheels that needing some love. They said they have a contract with www.spitandpolish.co.uk and that they were very good.

So i said i would give them a try. The way the work with my dealer is that they are in the area on Tuesdays and Fridays. So i droped the wheel to the dealer on Tuesday morning and got a call on Friday at about 12pm to say it was back.

Went down to pick it up and i am over the moon with it. You can't tell it has been re done at all and the colour match on the inserts is spot on.

I highly recomend these guys to anyone. And it is a hell of alot cheaper than a brand new wheel.
