If it's kerbing-type damage, rather than the whole original finish failing and flaking off the wheel (which requires shotblasting and can't be done with the wheel on the car), and you're in (or can visit) the Cambridge area, I can offer the services of the local ChipsAway wheel refurbishment service. :-)

We're recommended by the PistonHeads East Anglia site (www.phea.co.uk if memory serves). Mail me if you'd like contact details or our website URL.

Certainly are

NB Anatol, a few weeks after you made the back of my Jaguar all nice and shiny, I reversed into a supermarket trolley at B&Q and messed it up again. Arse!

Think its called "Pristine Wheels" in Milton Keynes. Never used them, but alot of dealers appear to use them.

If you're in the Norwich area, "New Image" could be a good place to try.

I had the place in St Olaves recommended to me. Quite fancy anthracite wheels on mine but the agro of having the tyres removed etc seems a bit of a chore.
