Car wrap, wheel / caliper refurb, near Birmingham? May 2014.
Discussion
Hello,
I'm looking to get the worlds worst car wrapped. My Lexus SC430 is in need of a brighting up. The twist with this wrap is that the bodywork is not perfect, what with a well earned scrape and a mild puncture wound on the rear bumper and the usual litany of insignificant car parks dints and dinges elsewhere on the bodywork that modern life throws towards a cars bodywork.
I've seen in Germany where they repair the car dinges and just spray a primer over the repair in anticipation of the car being wrapped, and frankly at the age of this car (12 years old) the underlying paint only has to protect the metal from corrosion, as asthetically it's basically had it, hence the need for a wrap.
So in sumation: Looking for a wrapper / bodyshop who'll smooth and fettle the cars curves before applying the film to the now smoothed car.
Recommendations please preferably near Birmingham although I might be persuaded to travel further if it means I wait only one night in a B&B while the film is applied.
P.S. I need one wheel refurbished, a ROTA (ROTA's yea, I know, but they were the only ones I could find that did a staggered fitment for my car, and the pro drift drivers swear they are strong).
I scraped it off a kerb the second day I had them on the car and am looking at getting the OEM brake calpiers overhauled / high temperature painted to match the wrap too, so any recomendations for this too would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

Midlands car care will take care of the wrapping and wheel refurb at fair price & their work is top notch.
Not sure about the fettling of the pannels before hand though. Might be worth getting in touch with them? They are based in Walsall just off junction 10 of the M6.
