For any of the Scottish zoners there is a deal on groupon today to refurb 4 wheels for £80. Might be of interest to some.

Whats the score with it? Certain places you have to get it done? Borbets could use a nip up and a polishing

It's for TJ car repair centre in Glasgow. Will only cover a basic refurb in silver I reckon but at that price seems a good deal to tidy up a rough set of wheels.

Just had my set sandblasted and straightened, and that was 140 quid without filling and painting them. So 80 quid for a fill and blowover seems like a bargain.

It's just going to be a face refurb, much like a smart repair like the mobile wheel repairs you can get done

Polsta in order to deal via quidco any company's have to discount there prices by a fair chunk. I paid £160 for a full refurb so even if this is faces only (the only bit you see anyway) its a decent deal especially if you have some tatty BBS you want tidied up to sell on.

Most likely, and it's not that far out, my smart repair guy used to charge me £25 a corner
