Wheel refurb in the West Midlands
Can anyone recommend a shop to get my wheels refurbed in the West Midlands. They would need to do good work, probably powder coated, and quickly. If they can store the car there while they are doing the wheels it is a bonus as I don;t have anywhere to leave the car without it's wheels other than the street.

£240 I paid. They have their own website with good, detailed previous work.

I've not experienced Robs powdercoaters, the finish on my rim is beautiful though.
Mine needed refurbing though.
If it is for stock rims and you want to cut cost you could sand down any kerbing yourself? £80 sandblasting sounds a bargain for 4 wheels.

There's kerbing from when the wife drives, but more worrying is the fact that the top coat is peeling in several areas on the original rims. Want to get them redone to look stock but more durable. Powder coating seems to be the be way forward.

Thanks again for all the info guys. I am around the corner from Pristine on occasion. Anyone have an idea what sort of prices they charge? Also, if the clear coat is peeling on a car that is less than four year old, do I potentially have reason to get Honda to make repairs/replace?
