Noticed a huge great gouge in my monza tonight, don't remember feeling doing that, bit of a bummer anyone know of a decent fixer in North Yorkshire area?
Exonian might know a company and there are other persons on the forum in the know who have been in a similar situation to you.
Oh Amanda what have you done?

Did the same myself the other week and still sulking about it now!
I had a set of Monza IIs (so nearly identical in finish to the Shadows) refurbished on my first mk5. Damaged by previous owner I'll have you know!
I was advised at the time to get both wheels on the same axle done at the same time as the factory diamond cut rim was very had to match. At that time (probably 5 years ago now) there weren't many refurbishers who would touch polished faced alloys. Mine were done by Pristine, and they were very good. However the finish was not 100% like the original. I had all four done as they all had at least stone chips.
Things have moved on since then and Lepsons seem to be popular. Give gossa a shout if he's still dropping by occasionally as I seem to recall he had his Shadows done by Lepsons last year.
