Scottish split-rim refurbisher?

[delays]

I've just picked up a Boxster with these wheels on it, which are in need of some attention:



I understand that they are two-piece, by BBS, with a sort of diamond-cut polished rim but a painted inner section.

Trying to get these refurbished in the regular places is a nightmare - I've been advised that they need to be split apart, the studs replaced and then rebuilt. This seems no easy task. There's a place called Lepson's down in England that can do this - the Porsche set seem to really recommend these guys - but I'd rather not have to box the wheels up and send by courier.

Obviously, if I have to, I will - but before I go down this route, can anyone recommend anywhere in the central belt that can do this standard of refurb?

Another Mike the Polisher vote.

See my post on here for the same wheels being refurbed. The job he did was exceptional.

Only thing to be aware of is the wheel bolts. A number will break during wheel dismantling and he can sometimes have to spend some time removing which may bump the cost up.

Does he still work?

Yes he is still polishing. I was talking to him last week and he is still definitely going.
