Title: Monza II repair
Post by: Radek on 13 January 2010, 11:01

The weather got me in the end:) I managed to kerb it this morning about 100 yards from work!
Has anyone had this alloy repaired and could shed some light on the cost? I've seen prices from £70 to £180!

Thanks!

They can be refurbed at good alloy refurb places...it all depends where you live as to which place   :undecided:

Expect to pay around £70 per wheel

A1 Wheels in the Midlands have done a lot of MK V forum members Monza 2 wheels.

Thanks JonnyG.
It's £80 near MK, which is less then I though it would be but still quite a lot...

If it's any consolation, I've just picked up my brand new mark6 golf gti today and I've already scuffed a monza II on a pot hole :sad:

Unfortunatly its virtually impossible to avoid the pot holes at the moment. 

I live in crawley, west sussex. I'd be grateful if someone could recommend a local specialist who can repair Monza II's.....?


Thanks in advance

I'll post a pic of my scuffed alloy and my new mark 6 tomorrow.

Just peeded off to get a scuffed wheel on day one, just a few hours after picking it up my new car.

On the plus side, I'm well chuffed with the new car. I'm itching to drive it again in the morning.

I had my BBS refurbished at wheelworksuk who are in Crawley and they are able to refurbed Monzas with the polished finish. They looked at mine which I also happened to very lightly kerb on a pot hole but they advised against refurbing as the finish is not quite factory and that damage was so small that not worth the repair.
