Just got my 15inch BBS back from 'Lepsons'

They have done an excellent job, just perfect; I was looking around for someone who would refurbish them and polish the lip around the wheels. Lepsons got the vote and I must say, worth every penny. I would defo recommend them. Excellent customer service and very quick. Took the wheels down Tuesday night and had a call Saturday to say they were done and to come get them.

Big thanks to Mark (splondike) for helping out

Heres some pics, looking forward to putting them on ready for Ace Cafe. :cool:

Spot on mark they where indeed Ԛ£50 Per wheel + the dreaded vat total being........Ԛ£235 and worth every penny in my eye :wink:

i also brought 4 brand new center caps from bmw total about Ԛ£100

the colour of the wheels is what they call flat silver i wanted to keep the colour standard so i could if need be replace the center caps if any little gits nicked them the new ones would match perfect

cant wait to put them on the sport will get some more pics when i put them on the car

Thanks for all the excellent comments

Well done mate!

I was eventually gonna have my BBS done in black with a polished rim but you've made me think twice now.

They are gonna look bad ass when you've got them on your car I'm sure!

Simon the centres on my bbs split rims and caps have had the lepsons love

check it out!

just take them apart and send the centres off to them. Get the lips done else where. then get them built up again by someone who knows what they are doing, this is the stage i'm at :? supergolfs are nobbas

Mason my alpina's are a mixture of lepsons and spit and polish. I'll show u monday to see if u can spot the lepsons wheel!

They look stunning, superb finish on the wheels don't u think?!

They are the best!!!

Can you have one wheel at a time done at lepsons?? I might do mine like that seeing as its off the road until April.
Im just worried the wheels will end up different shades of the same colour!

Thats a decent price mate.

Where is spit and polish?

How much do you reckon it would cost to get a set of 15" BBS done like yours or like the ones at the top of the thread?

Cheers!

Looking very sexy indeed Simon........The wheels that is :P

I will have a look at Ace and see if I can tell winkeye

To be honest peeps I know there are cheaper refurbishers out there but I wanted the best so off to LEPSONS they went. If you are going to get them done, best to get them done PROPERLY. Their customer service was excellent and they even gave me a tour of the place; very nice people.
