White alloy refurb Newcastle

Can anybody recommend an alloy wheel refurb company they have used; it can be mobile or one based in or around Newcastle. Had a stupid moment this morning driving forward into a side on parking bay and , stupid me.

Its for a white alloy so trying to gauge a price for it, im guessing £50-£75

Cheers

Hey Richard,

I had the same problem, only mine was literally two weeks after I'd bought it

AFAIK your Mini garage (probably Fawdingtons or Mill/Cooper Boldon) will do it for £50 per wheel. Depending on what needs doing as well. I've just been trying to ignore it because it's not that noticable unless you go looking for it.

refurb

Hi,

I took my wheel to Bettablast in Shiremoor (behind what was Petterson Ford). Cost £25 for refurb, really good service and was done same day. Think their number is 0191 2518575, cant recommend them enough.

SEM in Sunderland did a great job on mine after it had been assaulted by a tyre fitter. They are fairly well renowned for their work as well.

Have always used Fawdington's in Newcastle of any refurb of alloys, they do a great job even if they aren't the cheapest
