Much to my annoyance, I scrapped my wheel slightly against a high kerb and it's marked the alloys. Someone told me that these can be repaired at a garage - it's not bad enough to get whole new alloy.
Can anyone help?
By the way, love this site!

You could try ChipsAway - haven't used them before but supposed to be quite good. Think it costs about £50.

a company website that's a free one from freeserve doesn't give a good image
plus looks like it was last updated the middle of last year too
but then again they might be excellent at what they do
