I want to get my wheels refurbed because who ever did them last time did them in quite a dull silver almost grey and i would like them quite bright to be honest.

Can anyone suggest a place in the midlands to get this done? and what sort of price i would be looking at?

Thanks

James

James, whereabouts are you located? If you're within striking distance of Wolverhampton, give A1 Renovations a shout, they're on the Bilston Road. There contact details are on Yell.com. They'll even put some spare alloys on your car whilst your own alloys are being worked on :)

Prices for powdercoating and polished lips vary from place to place, you'd have to ring round places and get quotes!

Cheers
