Wheels

6spdChick · 05-15-2006, 05:39 PM

OK so when I got my car one of the wheels was messed up. They wrote me a we owe you saying they would either powder coat that wheel for me or get me all of the wheels done whatever color I wanted and they would pay for one. So I just called and I can't believe for once a dealer isn't trying to screw me lol He said his cost per wheel for the shop to do it is $55 so he is going to get them all done for me for $165 since he's paying for one. I kept saying $165 are you sure lol and he's like ya I'm thinking since you've bought 2 cars in a month I can help you out

Soooo I'm kind of thiking gun metal on silver... any other ideas?

hey see I told you to get other opinions on it. You know me personally, I can't stand the factory wheels, can't wait til I have the money for some nice clean JDM wheels, but your getting a good deal so go for it!

Just go to the junk yard I'm sure you could pick up something cheap then sell them back to them lol

Well, they should have some at the dealership then. I know the dealer told me they'd put on some wheels and hubcaps on my car while my wheels were in the shop.
