Hi
So unfortunately i kerbed it the other day second time on the same wheel (second time ever since ive been driving infact, both with mini )

does anyone know if this can be refurbished, or do i need to buy a new alloy?

cheers

No you shouldn't need a new alloy, I think that can be refurbished back to life

[Mike Edwards]

Looks do-able.

I had my set done by MOD-N-MINI ~ Mini Modifications & Customisation Specialists they were great and very quick

where are you - someone will probably be able to recommend somewhere more locally. I actually think that may be repairable by one of the mobile smart repair people - they push the tyre back, repair the damage, and then paint only the damaged area. Usually works out far cheaper than having the trye removed, the entire wheel blasted, repaired, and then recoated/painted.

That's definitely do-able. I run my own business doing these and other cosmetic stuff etc. all the time. Don't know where you're at but lots of specialists will sort it, no problem.

The finish on my wheels when done
