Doesn't matter what their website's like, I've seen 2 sets of wheels they've refurbed, one was Moynas Schmidt's which he had mirror polished, and the other was a set of Anthracite BBS on a Corrado and they both seemed spot on

its called keeping costs down by DIY he built the website himself this saving money and time to do the wheels to the best possible standard.
even if he does charge £50-90 a wheel.
