   Hey guys,
   
   Just wondering if anyone knows somewhere around Northamptonshire who do like curb damage refurb on wheels and wheel colouring to white at all?
   
   Many thanks.

   Edit:
   
   Or a rough estimate on how much it should cost... so I have a rough idea?

   I had a quote from a place in melton and they quoted me £55 a wheel to have them refurbed and powdercoated white. Think you could probably get it done cheaper though

    Alright. All that plus primer.
    
    Is it easier to actually take the wheel off and do the work on it?
