Anyone know of wheel refurbishers in London

I have bbs lm reps and today I stupidly hit the front wheel damaging and scraping the polished chrome lip

So does anyone know of a decent wheel refurbishers in London that they would recommend for me to bring it too?

I called a couple recently and A1 Alloys seem to be the best priced, and they come out to you to do the job.

Let me know how your repairs go buddy.

Dips at Custom Cars. See mine, P 5UML's, Josh1ah's and MANY MANY others.

There's no other refurb-er I'll go to, period.

Pm me if you want his number. He's close to Heathrow area.

I'll answer that for you dude

They're no reps and they're not LM's either

I'll let Josh chime in with what they are

ARGH NO NO NO
These are SSR MS1 Professors ...You would have to import these bad bois

Don't get reps as you will never get the quality finish. Keep an eye out on the second hand market as you can pick up a bargain of genuine rims for about £800-£1600
