Sure i seen one before in an Audi dealership, was a half and half thing, to show damage, and how it was repaired.

So should be able to do, probly expensive though.

The only way I've ever thought you'd be able to repair them is to stick them on a metal boring machine, would need to weld it up then take a skim off the top I'd have thought.

Can do it at Lepsons but I'm not sure how close that is as I dunno where Darlington is lol. As mentioned any decent place can do it, nothing to do with welding

Thought so, thought they might have to add metal if it was very bad though.

That's a fair price. My old place use to send wheels to them so I know they are good
