I've used these guys on several occasions for my Porsche (wife is Sh*! at parallel parking):

http://www.jpalloys.co.uk/

They charge approx £40.00 per wheel, will collect from you by courier as you are in London as per your thread as they are based in Cannock, Staffs (there is a small charge for this) and it will take them 3 days as they do a complete refurb (strip back, repair, re-coat etc).

They can also do different colours as I have just gone from standard silver finish to metallic grey to match the colour of the car, and they also do diamond wheel cutting which is very rare to find (but damn useful to know).

I have no links to them whatsoever but I used them once as they were next door to a Company that I do business with and I was stunned at the results hence me mentioning them.

FYI I am also to be a proud DB9 owner very soon as I am due to collect her tomorrow (hopefully) from Aston in Amersham hence for my lurking on this forum - pictures will be posted when I get her and there's no slippers or pipe for this DB9 driver as just turned 40 and having a James Bond mid-life crisis......

Hope that helps.

Worth knowing about as they are localish to me

I'll wager they are more than £40 per wheel on a 20" wheel in 2 different finishes.

I use BJV Engineering for all my refurbs but I would expect at least £80.00+

I was charged £40 + VAT for my Porsche alloys and they are 20' as they are off my Cayenne Turbo (and yes the wife can kurb them)

Hope that helps

They probably dont but they would have made a better job of running the country than the other two clowns.

Diamond Styling in Sevenoaks have been recommended on a number of occasions. I believe Lancaster Aston Martin in Sevenoaks use them. Will be giving them my two rather gouged diamond cut alloys later this month. I was quoted £100 - £120 a wheel, which seems a lot compared with some of the prices given so far. (But diamond cut, and quite badly damaged.)

I had a couple of my old XK8 alloys done (by someone else) for about £60 a wheel a while back. I thought it was good value at the time, but after a few months it was obvious I had not paid enough.

I would definetely recommend Pristine in MK although a little pricier than some others they really do aim for perfection.
