It looks horrible! I've been quoted £300 all in so far. Is this a good price or does anybody think they can beat it? Cheers.

Just checked with them and they are still offering this price, but their 'cheap' supply is running out. Only problem being is I live about 1hr30mins from Brum! And they don't lend out wheels.

I was very happy with the job they did, although I just noticed on the weekend that there are one or two small bubbles appearing on one of the wheels. This is probably due to my car being parked out on the street all through winter though, exposed to lots of salt 1998 Steel Grey 20V Turbo

Other 2 id consider are spit & polish and Wheelworx in colchester. www.Poweritalia.com - The UK's leading Fiat Coupe Specialist

Fullpint Unregistered F	I can do them and I powder coat the whole wheel. Mind you there is no way I can match £20 per wheel I can't see how they can make money. Check out www.tpcs-magnesium-refurbs.co.uk They look nice in White
