              Its been a while since my last fill+drill experience. I know some OGs on here that do it but don't remember who. What are my options for E38 weaves fill+redill currently besides Edwin and Nigel (not sure if he still offers the service). Any reputable shops besides LAX wheels and VR motoring? Plz assist. :thankyou:

                  I am considering to go with him most likely, but wanted to know if there are other places that can machine the fill welds flat in addition to re-drill.

                    Don't know of anybody locally, granted Niguel used to do it himself after the fill & drill was done. Outside of the locals, I think ewheelworks does exactly that, but with a price tag of about $200 a wheel or more. Add shipping costs and paint to all that and it's not that fun anymore.

                      I get a fist bump from him every time my recommendation goes through. I can't say the same for anyone else

                      Unrelated: my gf is working in Paris for the next week. I'm tempted to ask her to bring home euro car parts. Not sure how I would instruct her to aquire them, though. I'd be happy with just euro grills.. those should fit in a suitcase.

                              In that bad of condition, it's smarter and safer to look for another pan...
