Anyone know of good alloy wheel refurb places, based in Essex or London?

I need 4 of my 18" diamond cut Monza II's refurbed and the inners painted black. Anyone know the ball park price and reccomend anywhere decent?

Thanks

Get hold of Dips at Custom Cars, best you can get, based in Middlesex. He's doing a set for me this week. I will be picking them up tomorrow hopefully and can then put some pics up for you to see.

I was just thinking theres another person in West London who does it.  Yes Dips work is really good too.

Where in middlesex is he based? I found a thread he done on a bmw forum and his work looks very impressive.

I used Lepsons in Kent. Their work is perfect. People from all over use them and recommend them.

Thanks,

Been quoted £250.00 from these guys (They balance and re-align after too)... The reason I think I'll go with them is they give you like for like tyre and rim replacement whilst they refurb your own wheels. Anyone used these peeps? http://www.wheelxchange.org/
