Plus Wheels

Post by bobjebb » Thu Apr 13, 2006 4:06 pm

I've just noticed that the Laquer is coming away in one of the corners of one of my wheels... Presume this will get progressively worse.

Anyone know where would I stand on this warranty wise? Thanks

Excuse me for being thick but what does that entail, and did you claim under warranty? Cos I ain't paying for it to be sorted!

Did you get your wheels podercoated the original colour? If so do you know the Audi paint code that was used?

Thanks,

Dave

Presumably that was in standard silver, not plus "Titan". Would you recommend the people that did it, and if so who and where are they?

(Just back from Easter wakeboarding, and Loch Ken's a wee bit nippy still).
