£35 a wheel. Inc vat. So cash basically
Mate,think carefully.if it's a set of run of the mill wheels fine,but I just refurbed a set of 4 fiesta St alloys and charged my mate £160,which is as cheap as you can go on a refurb IMHO.
I've seen the work of these mobile boys and generally it's abysmal,it took me all day to sand and prep the wheels,say 6 hours.then the full clean up before paint,paint,laquer,drying times meant I told the customer 2-3 days,he won't be doing that in the back of a van.
There's a guy across from me who charges £20 per wheel,he dosent even clean the wheels first,just masks up and sprays over,dosent break the tyre bead or sand them properly.the last set he did you can even see where he painted over the brake dust!!!
I always showed customers his work to show we cost more!!
