Wheel Repairs !!

[mliley01]

Hello... new to the forum, and my first post is to ask for information!

Got a new Leon Fr TDI, 6 weeks old, and lost a head to head chicken with a white van. I decided a kerbed alloy would be less painful than a written off side as it became obvious the van wouldnt move!!

So, as a result I have a nastily scraped 18" alloy on the front left, and was wondering if anyone knew of anywhere good and not too pricey to get a repair job done around Solihull/Birmingham ?!?!?

Thanks

I had alloy repaired on me old leon, after kwikfit kindly knackered one trying to get the nut cover off, then tried blaming me, sorted it out with a quick letter to head office, who paid for all the repairs, and sent the rude pri*k on a training course, but when the guy came round to fixup me alloy it would have cost about £40 for the job, not to bad, specially when its not my pocket being burnt, but that was bristol, im not sure of brum but i cant imagine its more expensive

I had a set of BBS alloys on a VR6 I had some years ago re-furbed by Lap-tab. Did a very neat job of it. Mind you they weren't kebed to start with, just a bit neglected due to their fiddly design and lazy previous owner.

I have just had a set of (BBS) VW Monza II alloys refurbished by a company called Pristine. These rims had quite bad kerb damage (not by me!) and were repaired well. Not too expensive either - £212 plus VAT for the full set which included diamond polishing as well as repairs to bad kerbing, removal and refitting, balancing etc.

Thanks for the replies.. Think I'll give lap-tab a call and see what I can get done.
