I got mine done for £100 last year. £60 to have them powder coated and £10 a wheel to refurb them. They looked/look awsome.

Only place near us I found was laptab and from what i've hear they are pricey (though do a very good job!!)

Labtab are pricey. Think they are £35 a wheel just to powder coat. I know a guy who works for some powder coating company. The only thing was that i had to leave the wheels with him for about a week and drive on steelies lol.
His unit is in birmingham just round the corner from the blues ground. Do you know that area at all?
