One of our Turbines had an unexpected encounter with a kerb a few weeks ago

Damage was pretty bad, and before I could get this one fixed, I bought this one on Ebay with a good tyre, with similar damage, with the intention of getting it fixed first, then swapping out our damaged one to get refurbed as well...that way I'll have a spare...a new one from Audi is around £360

The ebay purchase

A local contact sent it away to a firm called Lepsons, based in Kent. Got it back today, and what a difference ...paint match is spot on, and the match is perfect with the centre caps as well

If anyone else is looking for a firm to refurbish wheels, I can recommend Lepsons

Best part....only £65 including carriage both ways

The result

Ignore the light "scratches" in the corner of the spokes - just reflections from the flash after I'd waxed and sealed the alloy

That looks a quality job. Im going to need both fronts doing at some points and hope they come back of that standard!

Impressive.

That's seemless. How do they fill the missing bits in?

Looks a great job. Do Lepsons have a website?

Yes, they have a website, not the most useful imho
I wanted to see if they could do the bi-colour wheels.
A bit far to go from sunny Manchester though.

When I picked up my wheel, the guy had some BMW M3 wheels there for collection that had been refurbed by Prestige Wheels

Fully repaired OEM diamond cut finish, with dark inserts - probably technically very similar to the bi-colours in finish
