  • Learned alloy

    kerbed alloy (stupid IPhone)


    So I've somehow managed to herb my from driver side alloy (I'm blaming the wife, cos I've been nowhere near a kerb). Car is only a month old too [emoji24]

    They are the White Bellone variety

    How much is it likely to cost for a refurb? (See image)

    They have to be diamond cut so can be quite expensive.

      Not all bellones were diamond cut the silver/grey ones were just powder coated so a bit cheaper to referb

        It's right on the rim so would I better just covering it (and all the wheels) with white rimblades instead for a temporary fix? A quick google suggests about £100 for a refurb [emoji30]

          Just seal it with clear lacquer then the rim blades sounds a good idea

            Make sure you seal them if you're doing this, they will now be prone to water/salt corrosion due to the damage, this will cause white trails under the lacquer as it progresses. Personally I'd look for a refurb specialist who can do diamond cut alloy wheels, most appear to be in the £70-80 range and if you have the cash it will be worth it in the long run.

            Don't forget the rimblades can keep moisture trapped against the damage so you may exacerbate the problem.
