Scuff on Nogaro alloy

[Gonz]

Hi guys,

First time posting here, so sorry if this is not the correct place! Earlier today some cow in her Audi Q5 decided she needed 3/4 of the road and so I unfortunately scuffed my front left alloy. Are there any companies that people know of that can fix the alloy? I have pictures I could add to show you the damage, but I cannot work out how to attach them .

Thanks!

Are they my best bet then? Will someone like chipsaway not be able to do it?

Thanks

No, if you want a proper job you'll need a specialist company.  Diamond cut wheels require a specific process to repair/refurb.  Don't know whereabouts you are in the UK, but Lepsons are well known on here and often recommended plus they do free carriage in the UK.

I live just outside of Derby, there is a wheelspecialist centre in Derby - I might give them a ring in the morning. Such an awful feeling when it happened!

The company basically have to shave the wheel's face to the point of the chip/scuff being shaved away, then the wheel needs lacquering again. Had the wheel been a silver painted finish rather than diamond cut then chips away would manage it.

Or the one in Burton, I know they do polished finishes. Other option is Chartwells on Pridepark, but it'll cost ta!
