Default Wheel refurbishment in / near Glasgow??

Evening all...I've a set of 18s on my S3, which need re-furbishing (bought the car a couple of months ago with them already on, and they're badly curbed)...




Does anyone know of a good re-furbisher near to Glasgow, please?


Thanks a lot,
greg

Another option is Powdertec in Kinning Park, seen an example of their work ivery nice too, tis not cheap though £50 sheet's per wheel I think.

Rab, you splitter! You will have another ford before long, you knows it.

Thank you gents, very much appreciated...will post some pics when it's all done


Oh, and while you're there, what do you reckon colour-wise?
Last time I had a set of wheels done, my Comp Mo's were done in gun metal for my flint Sapph Cos...thinking of a colour change for my wheels - any suggestions to go with a red S3?
Was thinking maybe same kinda thing, nice dark ones...

Cheers for your input fellas, much appreciated

I reckon that's the way forward too, anthracite it is! Makes the car look tougher, tis a bit different, and it hides brake dust better - marvellous!

Was gonna go to this company that I've been told about who are just round on Gt Western Rd, but that's a few too many votes for ESP - looks like they're the fellas!

Cheers all
