Vancouver refurb

Any recommendations? Mine were buggered when i got the car but as every other spoke is diamond turned/polished i would prefer a decent refurber i fear they're going to cost a bit :/

Lepsons. It's a bit of a trek as they're over London way, and they'll need them for around 3 days, but they will come back looking like new. From memory they charge £80 a wheel, but they do have a price list on their website.
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.

It's a pity they closed their place in Swindon a couple of years ago.

Check that mate, just had mine painted and refurbed, cost me £80 for all 4, got them back the same day... Really good quality though, all my mates have had them done with the same person and I'm really pleased with them!

Ok mate from what i can see you've had them painted as i stated in the op each other spoke on a standard vancouver is diamond polished/turned i want then as standard so a decent bit more work involved hence the price mentioned by others
