I'm in SW Surrey and I went to Sevenoaks to these people http://www.diamondstyling.co.uk/index.php who were good.

They refurbished my scuffed V8V wheels well and do a lot of work for the local Aston dealer (Lancaster I think).

£90 each but you either need to leave the car with them (and they gave me a lift to the station) or take the wheels in.

Contact Chris at Exel Wheels: http://www.exelwheels.co.uk

He'll collect your wheels, give you a loaner set and then take yours to Lepsons who will do a first class job. Chris then brings your wheels back a week later and swaps his loaner set for your newly refurbished wheels. He has many different wheels so check that he has a set for your model.

Here's another for you that I can personally recommend, although maybe a little far out for you in Basingstoke.

I used these guys who I've seen recommended a lot on PH.

http://www.wheelrefurbishing.com/

The original paint finish was chipped and scratched so no actual damage to the wheels. Very happy with the results, colour match is perfect but if I'm being really picky, powder coating isn't quite as smooth finish as painting.

It was £170 for all 4 wheels collected and delivered (tyres were already off the wheels).

good tip Tony these guys in Crawley look the biz - pick them up tomorrow so the wheels will be ready for Hever - could be another "marmite" moment

Good stuff, glad I'm not the only one who fiddles with their DB9. Looking forward to seeing it at Hever!
Had my Sports Pack wheels diamond cut on the face and painted light grey on the rim and spokes. They are stunning!

In that case stay away. My wheel refurbs at Lancaster Sevenoaks were a bodge at best. If I've broken any rules there... sorry but the truth hurts.

Parked behind it at Hever testerday. Lots of 'interest' in it from everyone, proably one of the most photoed cars at the event.
Definately a marmite car!
