There\'s a company in Guildford called Wicked wheels. I know a guy had his veilside spilt rims done there and they looked very good afterwards :D

Complete wheel hand polish, including each individual nut etc.

Very good at what they do, but don\'t expect them to be amazingly prompt. Last time I was in there, they had so much business they didn\'t know what to do with themselves.

I too have heard great things about Spit & Polish in Kent also though, and have seen some very good work by them.

You don\'t wanna know...

Less than a new set of wheels though, hence done.

Mind you, most things are less than those wheels - before Veilside stopped making them they were over a grand a corner to import!!!  :eek:
