taz777 Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Hi Flic, sorry to hear about your alloy, depending on what side of Herts you are, theres a great place in Chesunt that will refurb your wheel (on or off the car) the same day. Not used them myself but have heard good things about them. KO Alloy Wheel Refurb 78 Great Cambridge Rd Cheshunt, Waltham Cross, EN8 8PA 01992 624433 Hope this helps, keep my eyes out for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulworthing Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 If that was mine I would also ask about getting all the wheels re-done in a nice titanium colour at the same time - reckon it would look lovely on that Vision Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg_93 Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Just popped down the road for something from the shops (Stuff for lunch tomorrow if you must know) and some utter dweeb (Trying super hard not to swear!) in a Merc cut me up on a roundabout and forced me into the roundabout and I curbed an alloy!!!!!!! I'm actually close to tears, I'm so annoyed!!! BEYOND ANNOYED! My baby is blemished :( My Dad says to leave it, he reckons it's not THAT noticable. But I know it's there and it'll bug me. I can't STAND curbed alloys. So anyways, my question is do Ford refurb alloys? Is it painfully expensive?? And if I go elsewhere does it void any warranty :( Off to cry now :(<_< ford will kill u on a refurb u betta off goin 2 a pro wheel company who normally only charge £30 a wheel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flic Posted June 19, 2009 Author Share Posted June 19, 2009 I'm hoping they're as good as the website makes out, have googled reviews and a few other forums have some folks that have used them. So fingers crossed! Not looking forward to using my mother's Ka to go to work in on Monday though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So fingers crossed! Not looking forward to using my mother's Ka to go to work in on Monday though Don't worry about the KA Flic - I handed over my Smart to Ford when I placed my order and have been completely carless for nearly 3 weeks now, I am telling people that I am doing it as I am going green (just not telling them that it will be Squeeze Green! LOL) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZeeJex Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Ive kerbed one of my alloys as well, but im expecting it having just passed. My grand plan is to have a new set after a year or so, and preferably a more normal looking one with ten less spokes next time :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inked Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Sky Ford in Hemel did mine for about £70 and did a good job, can't tell it was ever damaged (Don't know if the sub-contract the work). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird! I called Sky Ford in Hemel as that's where I got mine and they said take it to Halfords! As if. Mine's costing £70. Hope it's good :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
