Look what a Nissan Dealer did to my Volks

Went to a Nissan Dealer to have my wheels road forced balanced and saw my passenger front wheel rim come out like this......



.....Thank god I noticed before I ****ing left that **** hole or else I wouldn't have been able to fight for them to pay for the damage done. I'm going to go to the MOST expensive wheel repair shop to have this looked at. The ******* service manager has the ***** to say it was my fault. WHY the **** would I pose a problem to you guys? I just wanted to get the **** out of there. Then around 4 guys tried to gang up on me and shoot me a million questions, like what the **** is this? I keep great care of my car and everything and they tried pinning it on me. I had a vibration issue which was why I went in the first place and the mechanic goes.... (this made me ****ing laugh)

"How do you know that that scuff mark wasn't causing your vibration issue?"

After that I knew he was a ******* dumbass LOL I go, that won't cause vibration, a mechanic should know that... LMFAO and he walked away. ******* idiots man, on the bright side, I don't have vibration issues anymore. Okay... rant over.......

Does anyone know a good place in the New Jersey area that is reputable?

Yea. I wasn't leaving the place until they said they would. At first the service manager goes.. "We won't replace the wheel." I was like yeah I know I'm going to have to take it to a powdercoater. I was so ****ing pissed.

Good, I'd make a deal with a local shop to overcharge and make money off it. I'd be pissed of that hapebbed to me, our friend Kevin always uses his stock wheels when he goes to the dealer

After an accident, I got similar scrape on my TE. All repair shops here in Los Angeles California. Refused to do repair my wheels, they just think it is not worth the risk. Insurance company will pay for one wheel...... How am I going to buy one wheel from Volk? Asked the insurance company. "it is your problem", response from a reputable insurance.

Well good luck. If you do yours and you are satisfied. Please forward may I could ship em over to NJ. To repair mine as well.

Alright, I will do that.

And Pcasey, na not yet. Since I don't rub AS much as I did before because I cut off the fender carpet thing, I just need to remove the bolts holding the brackets and I'll be fine after that. I plan on dropping the car soon though so I guess we'll see how everything pans out.

It's just annoying though because one headache leads to another.....

Shameful. There's a place here in Houston that will repair it so that you can't even tell it was ever damaged. About $100-$125. Have them pay to ship it here and back to be repaired.

Ok, if it comes down to that I will, but I don't want to wait. I think I'll have a guy over at g35nyc do it for me, he's pretty reputable.

I love my car but my next one is not going to be an infiniti.. The moment I realized that all the dealerships are out to get you was when they tried to charge me $200 to install sway bars after telling me it was $50.. Then they tried to tell me that they didnt wash my car after I told them not to and put a note on the steering wheel.. and my car was clean when I picked it up..
