Just brilliant, its not too bad but its there and on a car which hadn't a mark on it!
Spoke to the Steelers, lowest price 4 a wheel £350!!!!
Anyone know where I can get a A+ job done on the wheel with a correct colour match/finish etc?
Live in the east of england, near Norwich/Ipswich. :angry015:
Cheers.

i have chipsway do mine and it was perfect

Just looked at the chipsaway site.
Its a franchise business, so you could get a right balls up if you get the wrong person.
Last franchise company I used nearly ended in ww3, bloody 5 year old could of done a better job!
W Wheels was the company I believe.
Its a bit pot luck I think if you get someone on the ball

i wouldnt let chipsaway near a car of mine

Under no circumstance allow chips away to repair your wheel, it is a well known fact that all they do is cover the damaged area and overspray the rest of the wheel and do so without removing the tyre, it is called a local repair, take it to a decent bodyshop, i would be most surprised if they can not do a quality full respray with the tyre removed.

I had them do 3 dent removals on my golf over the past 3 years. Always a perfect job. As above a franchise so im lucky they call in a good dent guy. If i get another dent im gonna ask him for his business card and cut out the chips away cost

Dents are relativley easy and I would do it my self, it's painting I really wouldn't let them paint any part of my car
