Quite a few of us have used BJV engineering http://www.wheelrefurbishing.com/contact.htm a decent result for the price.

I just wanted to say thanks Sean for the recommendation. I got BJV to refurb my wheels. They were quick and the wheels were totally fantastic. Just like out of the showroom. And very good vfm.

as there seems to be a consensus that they offer VFM, and loadsa people are using them, any chance of organising a TIPEC discount with them ?

How much did they charge out of interest?
I am thinking about selling my A6 and although no kerbing they have developed that annoying alloy corrosion under the laquer that seems to happen on alloys sometimes.
