Title: Alloy refurb costs & recommendation - Harrow area
Post by: prp74 on June 07, 2015, 11:13:09 am

Hi, wants to get the alloys refurbed as I'm going to keep the car for a long time. Have been quoted around £280-300 for a full refurb (acid dipped etc) in met grey including courtesy alloys whiles its being done.

Is that a good price?

Can anyone recommend a place in Harrow or near by that can do it and also include loan of alloys as the car will be needed?

Many thanks

That's a pretty fair price £70 per wheel with courtesy alloys, as long as there work is good I'd imagine you wouldn't find much better.

I paid £320 for a set of 18 inch alloys to be stripped, dipped and powder coated in a custom colour last year from Maldon Shot Blasting & Powder Coating. However they don't offer loan wheels while they do yours. But their work is top quality.
