    Magman at Punchbowl (9705 2686) did a mates Golf GTI wheels that were gutter scraped, think he was charged about $75 a rim.

    I've had mine done on a previous car by Mobile Alloy Wheel Repairs they are a mobile service and will come to you 0425 305 590

    Both were good jobs so it's whether Punchbowl is convenient or the mobile service.

    It only takes 20 mins for the APR flash man - unless you can walk next door to work, just get it done whilst you wait!

    Thats mechanic scratching balls and justifying cost time... Its only a laptop connection to the car for enough time to dump the code, then a quick burn to check its doing what it should and won't instantly blow a vacuum hose or code.

    Makes sense, i'll see if i can convince them on a quicker turn around i.e. while I wait.

    thats correct!! the rides crap but its great having one of the lowest Polo's in Aus Plus even that low with 14" steelies, I barely scrape anywhere!

    Troy dont be a pussy, H&R springs just arent low enough!
