Hi I have a small couple of marks on both my fronts (paint flaking not kerb rash!) and was wondering if anybody new any dent type guys that do the small repairs with an airbrush or similair? Don't know who the local opc's use so any info greatly appreciated.

you might try looking up your local chipsaway - I think most of their franchises also do basic alloy wheel touch-ups too. Although from the looks of it your paint is flaking due to the dreaded corrosion and possibly a refurb is the only option to cure it. I recently had mine done and am extremely happy with the results:

Although it wasn't cheap - but that;s because they are 2-piece wheels.
 
Scott I could give you a number but as you are nearer to Greenland than Glasgow [:D]
some of the guys in Region 2 might be able to help

thanks for the help, i've sent a email to chipsaway to see who the nearest one is. I'm just looking for a couple of quotes just now as the OPC says they'll send me a cheque to repair the wheels but i think they were thinking about £35 a wheel. If i can get the quotes i'll get the money and live with the wheel until winter time and get the whole lot sprayed then.
 
Another one to try is Alloy Master. He's mobile so that might be handy! The guy is called Steven Boyle on mobile 07821 195733. He does everything. Found him parked up at Edinburgh Porsche Centre and the wheels he had been working on looked minted. Worth a try perhaps??

The only reason I didn't use him myself was that I traded in my Boxter.
