Wheel Refurb Bristol area

c-hri-s · 05-31-2012, 03:41 AM

Hi,

Having done a great job kerbing my front-left yesterday, I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations of any mobile alloy-repair guys who worked in the Bristol area?

Also any rough guide on how much I'd be expecting to pay would be appreciated.

Cheers

My neighbour has recommended a place in Swindon who provide a courtesy car.

I don't know anybody in Bristol but like you have fu@ked my alloys too but thought about upgrading then selling my mv3s.

Chipsaway was all I could find online. Have filled in their form for the guy to give me a quote .. will see.

Never tried them. Heard that the smart repairs do not have great longevity....

Wouldn't touch a mobile repair.

Lepson's in Swindon is the gold standard of wheel refurbishment

Sure, I read good things - but can't really be without my car, and Swindon is a bit of a walk home

Thanks, couldn't remember the name. They offer courtesy cars, according to my neighbour.....

Ring lepsons, they may have something you can use, or you could rock up and wait.
Others do this, you can go shopping for a day

Otherwise get a cheap set of wheels on eBay then sell them on again.
Plenty of people on here would take them as winters or for the same reasons.
