Thankfully no need to use them yet but Lepsoms is always good. They were offering free collection and delivery the last time I spoke to them

Ping'd my passenger rear tonight on a left hand turn curb so fed up!
The mark is on the painted bit so hopefully can get it repaired.

Three of the wheels were quite badly kerbed. Clay mit and autoglym detailer is all it took for the paint...15 minutes......today. It gets TLC every week in the summer. Wash, super resin and then HD with a splash of sealant to finish.

Very Nice,
I have just had all my alloys refurbed at Amazing Alloys Telford, Fantstic job,
Couldn't fault them, will definitely use them again soon on other alloys.

Paint looking good , love the Blue,HD wax works a treat :nodder:

Audi damaged one of my alloys a few weeks back whilst putting a new tyre on so they had there wheel refurbisher attend
At first it looked strange but then when actually looked at the different colours it was a perfect match

Done a few miles and they are definately quieter but I can't say they are "night and day" from the P Zeros.
