...sod that.
So I call the scrappers and they are eighty odd quid, bonus.
So I then pop to the garage to pick my other half's car up and they say to me "just get it welded, it'll only cost you a tenner". Nice.
One question, you arent supposed to weld alloy wheels, are you?
any areas where women have tried to park to near a kerb

And if its not filled with the right alloy it could break and end up causing a blow out on the motorway or something, just buy a new wheel, you wouldn't buy a replacement shoe from a tip or stick the sole back on with pritt stick would you?

That said, good point about the wheels. Thanks
I'll go to the scrappers.
Then again, at £1450 a pop you are definitely some sort of c**t.

Breakers yard is a good option, but again check the inside for signs of weld. Hey, I dented one of mine in a pothole and it $300 just to heat it up and take the dent out.
