I have terribly scuffed alloys. Can anyone recommend anywhere in the Manchester to get them back to their lovely perfect condition?
I also have a smashing dent on the back panel that could do with fixing from some gorgeous individual opening their door very hard-nice.
I also had the priviledge of getting my back panel keyed any good paint shops??

Hmmm maybe I should just buy a new car....

Blimey mate your cars been in the wars  :sick:

Lepsons in (Swindon & Kent) have a good reputation for repair monza shadows from what I hear. There not that close to you but not a million miles away. Maybe they do a collection service?

Good luck anyway.

It certainly sounds like your car has had a hard life!
If I were you I'd buy an old banger instead of a new car.

Awesome GTI now do wheel refurbs I believe, haven't used them for this yet myself, but all their work on several of my cars has been spot on. Dead nice people too:) Sure they'd recommend a bodyshop too

OP: Sorry to hear about your dents, dings and scuffs.

To fix your alloys, try these:
http://www.rimfurbish.co.uk/index.html - They offer a collection/delivery service
Or,
http://www.lepsons.com/contact-us.phtml

I know full well how this feels and hope all can be fixed soon and to your satisfaction.
