Hi there folks, really hoping someone can help me here, i damaged one of my 19" BBS Montreals and i need a recommendation for a refurb. Ive searched tirelessly and a replacement trim definitly isnt available so I need to have the wheel rim polished and then sealed with a lacquer. Im living in southern Ireland but have no issue sending the wheel to the UK so long as I know they are reputable and can give me the perfect finish! Any help will be much appreciated, it actually hurts to look at my XJR like this!!

Give http://www.lepsons.com/ a shout. Kelly from KDS uses them for wheel work and they seem to be highly reccomended.

Is it the chrome trim surround which is damaged or the actual alloy. The chrome strip can be replaced.

Wicked Wheels in Guildford always sorted mine.....

thats great everyone thanks so much!! unfortunately the trim surround is only available in 18 or 20 not 19 as it was a limited edition size primarily for the xkr/xjr 100's. Ill give these guys a call and hopefully ill be back on the road and ill post some pics of the finished job, thanks again smilesmile

On another note if any of you find yourselves stuck for something check out sbwheels.co.uk, they were unable to help me with this but judging by the customer care and time they spent talking to me i would say definitely a good company to deal with!!smile
