try Jason @ MIJperformance, hes in walsal mate,
Charge you about Ԛ£160ish to get 4 x 17'' bbs split rims, centres powder coated and rims polished.
so you can kinda work out how much he'll charge for other wheels.

I had a quote from them for my 15" BBS to paint and then polish the rim Ԛ£50 each...

if your a bit tight, BJV engineering did my bbs when i had them for Ԛ£80 cash (not vat if you don't want a bill) inc centre caps.
Word of advice, take your centre caps apart yourself (ie he only wants the metal centre disc which is metal to spray) as the guy there is a bit heavy handed and broke 3 locking plastics when he did mine.
They are in hemel Hempstead, nearish to watford i think! Not the best job but value if your on a budget!

lepsons any time, spit and polish are not bad. But i have had one of my wheels done by lepsons after spit and polish could not sort it! So i want/need! to get the other 3 done again by them to match them all properly.
by the sounds of it they arent worth going to at all.amit325i wrote:if your a bit tight, BJV engineering did my bbs when i had them for Ԛ£80 cash (not vat if you don't want a bill) inc centre caps.

if they take that much care by breaking your locking plastics
think of how they will treat your wheels
you get what you pay for....if your on a budget keep saving
till you have the money to get them done at somewhere like
"lepsons" and then be extra careful
I think for Ԛ£80 they did a decent job, but how long is a piece of string, if you want utter perfection that will cost, i would still recommend them any how, there were a a few imperfection here and there, but they still look crisp!
Do they do split rims? I drove my car the other day for an hour and put it back in the garage. I didn't drive it again for a couple of weeks and took her out for a wash last week at the wheels are fcuked. There must have been a lot of salt on the road and it's eaten into the ally. Looks really poo now, so defo needs a good polish. My mate also sprayed my bolts when he coded my wheels and i'd like them replaced with gold ones to match my callipers, so though i might kill 2 birds with one stone and get both done at the same time. 

anyone know of anywhere in yorkshire that can sort a rim out for me??
