Hi,

I have recently scuffed an alloy and I have one with minor marks on from when I purchased the car.

I am unsure on what route to go down, if its a refurb I would want them colour matching - but I've been told this isn't always possible. But I can only find one for sale.

I am based in South Yorkshire if anyone can recommend anywhere or know of anyone selling any alloys?

Thanks in advance!! :)

I've had several wheels, admittedly not Fiat wheels, refurbished and the colour matching was fine.

Be aware, you get what you pay for, so if you're after a cheap job, you'll get cheap work. For a proper refurbishment, stripped, damage filled, powder coated etc, expect to pay between £50 to £70 per wheel, double that for diamond cut wheels.

Google is your friend. There are several alloy wheel repair places in Sheffield, just look at some of the reviews and then if you find one, go and have a chat and see what they do. Personally, I only ever use The Wheel Specialist, but there isn't a branch in Sheffield.

Thanks for the advice, im hoping for somewhere decent locally but if I have to travel a little further for better quality then I will. Going to pop into somewhere on saturday and see if they can colour match :)
