Damaged Monza :-( Repairable?

[mb]

Hi Guys

Went shopping in Watford today and as I pulled into the car park and stopped to get my ticket I thought it looked a bit tight.  Anyway with ticket in hand and being very careful not to catch the rear wheel, I managed to catch the front wheel instead    It sounded terrible.  The damage is about a foot along the edge of the wheel.



Does it look repairable?  If so, where is the best place to try?  I've searched this forum and found a few companies mentioned, Spit and Polish, Pristine, etc.  Has anyone got a recommendation?

Thanks

Looks like a Monza II to me.

Anyway, repairable but the finish won't be perfect.

I've had a bigger chunk taken out of my alloy so it'd be interesting to see if mine is repairable or not.

well my local garage want £90 a rim for the monza 2s, saying thats its the diamond finish but as youve done the edge of the rim im guessing it will just be a normal refurb price anything from £40-65 depending on where you go.. halfords charge £50 but if you wana perfect finish then empty your pockets lol

Laserblue, have you found somewhere local that will re-do the diamond cut finish?

CTS will do it for £80 a rim, he said it will be just like new and can pick your choice of insert colour.. he will need your car over night.

I'd personally go with Spit and Polish for a Monza 2 as they were offering Monza repairs when no-one else could do them in the UK.   I would have thought they would be good at them by now!

Prices look good! Shame they are so far away I would be tempted to get my Monza's re-diamond cut at that price.
