:D Almost 3 years on & my 18" rotor alloys on the Quattro are... Er were totally unmarked. Cutting a long story short, my other half forgot to mention she'd had an incident

Went to Lepsons today... hardly a back street operation... almost a whole industrial park dedicated to referbing alloys... & paying extra £10 to guarantee exact colour match. If you're thinking about a refurb, watch this space & u can judge for yourself over the quality of their work
 
Thanks Denis O - wheel back from Lepsons, have a guess which one they refurbed? :D .... I did leave a clue, or maybe I did it to trick u

Faultless quality, only slight grumble was at the last minute tried to steam an extra £12 plus VAT to fully fill a hole. Thought was a little cheeky as no mention made at the time of booking/arrival/wheel inspection, though was in the end waived after a little polite chat - otherwise 1 week later 100% satisfied

These are other pics though have added some polish & 3 coats of Poorboys wheel wax sealant WDYT?

Just looked at their price list - split rim with diamond cut finish on the rim is £105 + VAT per wheel, £115 with tyres on :o
 
Was £90 plus VAT (tyre+diamond cut + exact colour match) =£108

They do a deal for four rims, depends how many need doing
 
Someone's E85 was parked outside last Friday with 108's freshly done, u won't be disappointed jimbo1958
 
Looks good Jembo, then you go and lay it on its face on the floor :poke:

Presume you had a spare you could run round on for the week.
 
There's decent beading on the tyre though was extra careful... & yes fortunately I have a full size spare

The weights under the valve give it away - it's the one on the left. For diamond cut alloys, am surprised they've all remained unblemished & the other two are in same condition.

Better not let her drive iit anymore... oh Frak, then she'd drive the Zed, decisions decisions... help

They did a fabulous job, but it is hard to spot the difference on a wee note pad. Had a 50% chance of guessing it correctly :lol:
