Curbed one this morning and it's REALLY bad, whole alloy
Decided to buy another and keep it a spare wheel
Has anybody got the part number from Vauxhall please?

Alex,
As said in the morning thread, a decent refurb place should be able to do it. Depending on how bad the damage is. Should cost less than a new wheel. I got a whole Corsa C SXi done for £40.

I know mate, but it's the whole wheel, not just the rim of it, there's also a chunk out of it. There's a local place that do decent refurb's. Depending on the price of a new alloy, I might get it done. If a refurb is £50, and alloy about £80, then i'll just buy one.

I'm sure a new SXi wheel was £99 when I phoned Vauxhall. I can see an exclusiv being more. You can still refurb even with a chunk missing again depending how bad.

I doubt many refurbishers could match the paint on the exclusiv wheel because it's quite 'bright' (for lack of a better word. maybe lustrous) compared to most silver wheels. You'd be better off getting 2 done and keeping them on the same side of the car, unless they can gaurantee a matching finish.
