   i know that my dads mate does a full refurb for around £30-35 per wheel, includes a powder coating after the refurb.
   
   will do most colours too.

    luckily mine wasnt in too bad nick, just oxidising of the paint and a few curb marks on the rim from the previous owner, they have come back as smooth as a babies bum all round and immaculate cond, cant wait to stick them on 2moz,
