Alloy Wheel refurb

It will depend on the amount and depth of chips/scuffs. I had my two front wheels done last year (after a few minor kerb incidents) and they cost me about £100 if I recall. I used Chips Away who are a nationwide franchise.

They come out to you and will repiar only the chips/scuffs rather than a complete refurb which can be costly.
Most places won't give online quotes as it depends on the amount/depth/area of damage for repair so you'll need to make a few phonecalls to get more of an idea.Feb 2015 NSD Challenge 8/12JAN NSD 11/16

We used "Wheels in Motion" back about 3 years ago now. It was for one alloy wheel and the price was about £45 I seem to recall. The guy ground down the wheel to remove the scuff and we were really pleased with the result.
He is on the lower braniel road in East Belfast off the Ballygowan road.Regards, Robin.2011 MFW # 34

I think it's the same place I mentioned on the thread which a few people in work have used and were very happy with their work.Norn Iron Club Member No. 252 :beer:0 -

Just keep in mind that £100 (even for two) is what some will charge for a full refurb. At £100 each you should be getting really top notch work.Always overestimating...0
