Credit to Tom, this place werent the nicest when he moved in but he saw the potential and got it all squared away. Glad everythings going well, also anyone even thinking of going in to see him stop thinking and go! You wont be disapointed and will be more than happy with the price/quality!

wheel refurbs are £40 a wheel. usually 2 days as need to get tyre beads broken, if already done or tyres removed then should only be a day

Does that price include tyre removal / refitting?

If so thats a very good price, cheapest i've had is £200 for 4

looks a nice little set up there, bit of an odd shape it looks from pics but still small is good.

Have you got a good flow or work?
do you get much from the sales people?

is the compressor gone be boxed in and vented outside or put outside at all cos that must be pretty loud in the workshop.

The compressor is super quiet which is nice. I was surprised when Tom fired it up to show me. But also, the compressor is in the same room as the booth and the work area is in a different room so the only time you'd hear it is when you are in the booth room.

There is a dust extractor beside it. He's using those vacuum cleaner type things that have hoses that plug onto your tools.

Rough price for 2 new arches fitted, rolled out slightly and sprayed on the rear of a mk3 golf? Also colour coded spoiler on the top, wing mirror painted and a slight rust bubble on a front arch, hoping it can be repaired by cutting the small bit out?

I know you wont be able to give an exact quote with out seeing it but just a guide would be good. I am going to get guide prices from places more local to me also but really want someone who will do a perfect job that does not break the bank so prepared to travel a bit further.
