are you sure they realised it is 19 inch

normally 17" = £55, 18"= 65 and 19" = £75 exc vat

Pristine are the ones that did my rays in the Matt Gun, from the bronze .. really really top drawer job, and service ... £75 per rim from memory, which is not as good as it used to be

I need to get mine done too, just not sure if I want to keep them silver or not.

How good of match do the guys in the UK do when compared to the OEM finish?

Well finally had the two alloys done at Lepsons and I must say they have a done fantastic job! cost me £75 plus VAT per wheel as the paint is called 'chrome silver' so costs more than standard silver.

very pleased, now just need to scrub up the other two to match.
