yes they did the damage after a second attempt of a different repair
the first pic is before and the one with damages are after. This is after they had my car for a week installing two fuel pumps and a sending unit. Oh yeah they gave me a free fuel filter! At least call my name or pull my hair first damn!!
the front rim has damage as well. What would you ask for after this. All I want is all four rims be powder coated, not just two rims

Wow. That's pretty much all I can say

The dealer installed a new spoiler on my car and chipped the paint in the vented portion pretty bad. And there reply was, no we did not

I hope for the best for u

Tell them to make it right -

NorCal dealership?

Had a similar thing happen to me. Dealer destroyed my factory painted white wheels on my 996TT with BraKleen when they took off the wheel weights "I've never seen this happen before" - "we use brakleen all the time" - "are you sure these are factory painted?"

They did the right thing and sent them out locally to their wheel place and I had them repainted in matching Carrara white. Place was in the east bay (Newark I think).

PM me if you need more details.

Good luck.

damm wheels are one thing, but at least fix the tail light before returning the car.

I would demand NEW rims or rims refinished and certified by the wheel manufacturer.

I would never get rims repaired by anyone other than the mfg, who is on the $$$ hook if they screw up- either with the repair or underlying quality, etc

Took car back to dealer . They are taking care of rims new powder coat . Service manager never even came out . By the way the whinning noise that I took it in for that they said was the fuel pump came back when it was parked at the dealer.
