Alloy wheel refurbishment

[ImysE30]

I recently scuffed up my new alloys pretty bad, pics below:




Now i went to a local alloy shop for a quote on getting them repaired. He goes that the lip will need to be removed completely on the first alloy as it's too difficult of a job to rebuild it

All 4 lips removed and then polished, he said £250. Is that a good price?

all my BBS were badly kurbed all around, cost me £200 got a two lips straightend out, and all the lips rebuilt, the paint was stripped re painted and laqured so there as new, he even matched the center caps perfectly without seeing one

Would have cost £230 but i didnt need a receipt and cash wasn't a problem

Imy grab it with both hands and smile £250 is a good price buddy

I've dropped the above 2 wheels off first to see what they will look like without the lip.

I thought it was a good price as well, he wanted £100 just to refurb 2 alloys without polishing them.
