Can anyone recommend a good mobile alloy repair guy in SW London?

Scuffed one of my Nismo alloys quite badly at the weekend - not a deep chunk just half a mill of rim scratches across the circumference with attendant paint loss. Colour matching these is a nightmare and I need someone who can do a good job.

Also might want them to repaint the horrid bright silver alloys on my new skoda a darker shade of anthracite or titanium, they look a bit too chinese at the moment...

Make sure you ask whomever you chose how they will paint the wheel (rattle can or spray gun) and what type of lacquer they are using (you want to hear 2k)

Sadly youre out of my area so this the best advice I can give.

A lot of refurb outfits won't touch this kind of finish with a barge pole - as you say, it's very difficult to get a perfect match. You might have to get both wheels on the same side done. I've read good things about these guys if you don't mind the journey.

OK so I used wheel doctor who took one look at the Nismo alloys and said there was no way he could get a good enough colour match on them. They have to go in for specialist treatment ARGH!

He did a good job on the BMW alloy though for £65.
