my mk2 golf gti has bbs spoked alloys on , i love them but the alloy isbubbled and scruffy,is a refurb possible,or is there a product on the market that helps?????

There are places that refurb wheels. I had the back left one done on my car which involved sanding the wheel down to get rid of the imperfections caused by "kerbing", re-painting them and then a polish. For £30, not bad at all.

Ask your local tyre depot, they will know someone that will do it for you.

Try a Forum search on \"alloys\". Last October I posted this:
I checked into this recently and found prices per wheel ranging from £25ish to over £60. The best place for my purposes is a back-street operation in Apsley, Hemel Hempstead: B.J. Vallack Engineering. No shiny premises but they do nothing but refurbish alloys and, according to others (including my Porsche-dealer neighbour), quality second to none, and the price quoted is very reasonable.

There are plenty of such places around, so do shop around and also ask for recommendations from some local car dealers, who must be sprucing up alloys frequently on their second-hand stock.
