Scuffed Alloys


Recommended Posts

I have managed to scrape one of my alloys down the side of a rather high kerb. Does anyone know anywhere that I can get it repaired? Either a national company or one in Herts/Bucks would be helpful. If anyone knows how much it should cost I would appreciate that info to.

Thanks

I dont know exactly where you can get them repaired but on the back of various Car magazines i.e Max Power and *****, there are places that refurbish alloys.

They usually cost between 30-60 quid per wheel and they look like new too when their done!

Kinda. The lexus alloys look great but have a two stage finish, which is a pain in the ***** if you want them identical to the originals. However, most refurb places will scrap the diamond cut finish to save money, and you really can't tell the difference!

I had all mine refurbished when I bought the car (second hand) in Jan. I rang Lexus and told them that I had already had them done by their bloke and wanted to ask him about cleaning and maintaining them (total lie !). The reception lady gave me his mobile number, I rang him and booked my car in to have all four wheels done and saved £15 per wheel (they charged £45 each). You could try that, but bear in mind that as woggledog has put they tend to scrap the diamond cut finish. You really don't miss it after a couple of days. I got mine done in a metallic bright silver finish as well. Does look good, and the finish is perfect (plus another years warranty from the wheel refurbishment company).
