N/s front hub replacement

So just refurbed a 17" set of sport alloys and took off existing se 16s. On front though I did notice the hub was a little dented. Still seems to work but tbh not keen on not replacing given I did have problems taking the wheel off due to this issue.

So do I buy new aftermarket ( I Can buy something which looks reasonable on eBay for around £25) or do I buy from a breaker?

Can't imagine a hub is going to be much different aftermarket? Thoughts?
 
The knuckle is available across various VAG group cars, but the bearing requires a special tool or you'll break the ABS sensor. I've no idea what the going UK rate is.

The special bearing installation tool also ensures the races are not damaged as would happen if a normal hydraulic press was used.
