Wheel refurb in Essex/Chelmsford area??
« on: 13 September 2009, 20:49 »
Scraped a wheel on a kerb yesterday - well gutted.

Anyways, I have one large scrape around the edge of one wheel, which Im eager to get sorted, as you can imagine.

I dont have any other wheels though, so would need to use the spare I guess.

Any good places in the Essex/Chelmsford area where I can get my wheel done to a good standard, and actually trust the guys as well?!
Obviously I want the finish to the same high standard as the other Pescara's on the car!

How long should it take?

Try Lepsons(www.lepsons.com), they are very well respected and cover the South East.  Turn around is usually 2-3 days.

Don't forget Spit and Polish - another very highly respected wheel refurb specialist based in Kent.  They are gods with diamond cut finishes like the Monza II, and should be equally as good on the Peskies - but fone them both, just to make sure they can get a satisfactory paint finish match.  :wink: :smiley:

Wicked Wheels. North Essex, based in hedingham near Halsted/Sudbury
