    Thanks to Michael for the cracking job he did on a set of BBS RSII rims at short notice. He had them ready for me on the same day I left them off, only I couldn't collect them until the next day.

    I had these for sale but couldn't find a set of replacement rims I liked, so decided just to refurb them instead. The rim face was absolutely fine (just dirty) and it was only the outer lip which needed done, so as they're a split rim Michael separated them and polished the lip. He also did the centre cap edges for me as they were slightly corroded. Very happy with how they came up - gave them a good clean and some wax today, before and after pics below.

    How on earth were those split and done in the same day?!! Unbelievable!

    How do you even go about building the metal back up to its original smoothness if its going to be polished? Surely you cant fill it?

    I'll hopefully be up to Michael in the next week or 2 with a wheel too.

    I don't know how Michael does it exactly Lyons, but there is a metal filler which many wheel guys use. Yeah he did them pretty quickly for me, no complaints about having to wait .............. he actually had to wait for me to collect them!
