If they re furb the wheels & do a proper job you've got a right result.
    Bring them round when they're ready to put on the Beastie!!!!!

Well, picked it up Saturday morning but had to drive all the way to Benfleet to get it as they don't deliver at weekends. Pretty pleased with the result as they've made quite a nice job of it and blended the resprayed new wing in quite nicely. Done a good job on repairing the Irmscher bumper but a little surprised they didn't respray the whole thing - only the area that was repaired. :-? New offside headlight unit fitted which means I'm going to have to clean up the other one to make it match....time for a bit of T-cut.
Will get some pics posted up when I get a chance.
Anyway, so nice to have the beast back again and looking well. :y

They done a nice job of the wheel refurb - looks brand new. :y My only real complaint is that they insisted on doing a geometry check as they said it was part of their procedure despite the fact there had been no impact on the wheel, and I only had it done at WIM a few weeks ago. They obviously made adjustments as the bloody steering wheel is off centre now. :(

Sounds like the insurance need to cough up for another WIM session. No way would that prang have put it out of alignment. Insurance should put you exactly where you were before the accident. Which includes a straight steering wheel. :y
