    No one i know of in Cardiff area mate.

    Rhenowheel in Bridgend have a good reputation and have salvaged some shocking rims for mates in the past.

    Also Steve G in Swansea has a storming reputation for quality control and price is hard to beat too.

    If you fail in the Cardiff area let me know as i work all over Wales and im regularly up and down the M4 with the van

    Renowheel in Bridgend did a damn fine job on my wheels a few years ago.

    Renowheel did a decent job on the Momo's that are currently on my Cefiro. £350 to do all 4, previously one of them was buckled they had curbing and a crap paint job

    Popped down to see Steve on sunday, top guy!!! Will be dropping my rims down to him in a fortnight for a full refirb, it's a bit of a trek but i'm sure it'll be worth it for the end result
    Once again thanks for top advice, as i've experienced far too many cowboys in the alloy refirb/polishing game.
