Anyone know a good place to get my original 5 spoke M-Techs refurbed. Most of the face is machine polished/ diamond cut? and I need to find someone who can reproduce this finish. Called a couple of places and they have not filled me with great confidence!

Lepsons , pristine or diamond sytling will be fine for your wheels !

I use lepsons all the time as they are next to me and have never had a problem at all !!

I dont think you will find an alloy wheel refurb company that will garrantee the diamond cut finish thou !! wink

Another vote for Lepsons - they refurb'd my M3 alloys back in September, and did a fantastic job.

Have yours been done before? Mine had, and so this time because they machine a little off the face of the wheel, I've lost the recess for the //M badge. Not that I really care.

This happens to all the m power wheels that have been diamond cut a few times but most people dont notice unless you point it out !!!

Look on the bright side - if they are removing enough material to loose the badge recess then they become lightweight alloys laugh
