im saying nothing... lets just say i had to just be civil and leave as i have been waiting too long for spoiler etc and needed my wheels for MOT today. Just cut my losses and left.

that fact im going to have to pay another £30 a wheel to get them stripped again.

that was the free paint/do you a favour, as the 1st mid level spoiler they sprayed reacted. so they offered to redo spoiler and splitter for free. they said i could use there facilities to spray my wheels but the day i went up there to do it the paint shop was closed. they kindly said to leave them there and they would do em for free for the inconvinence.

Free jobs & favour jobs are always tricky when they go wrong.

If the mid level spoiler they sprayed reacted then that's down to their prep work & if it was a fully paid for job then they must put it right. The splitter & wheels if not part of the original job could be awkward to sort out.

Gutted for you mate, I can't even begin to describe how bad they are. After all the work you have put in that's a proper kick in the knackers !

On the plus side the car sounded well, very JDM and the spoiler is very nice even despite the paint

But I'm not gong any futher as I said you have our numbers so it's up to you if you wan to get it touch.

kelly love... he done my spoiler and splitter 1st time and it reacted. i thought fair play these things happen and gave you the benafit of the doubt and gave you my splitter and spoiler again. they was not sealed, which is why they reacted. i gave lee extra money to buy sealer so it didnt react again. spoiler has come out better yet still has blemishes, and he has missed the bottom of the spoiler (there is still red ffs) and got laquer runs. splitter has white over spray over it and has cracks on it.(this is hardly professonal) And the Wheels seriously take the ****. Yes he said he would sort em if i dont like em but why would i give em back after 2 attampts and the spray works still sore????

i know your trying to make some money on the side of signing on but you can go round saying you can do things when you blatently cant!! My 7 year old could of sprayed the wheels better. They have been primered, and had 1 coat of heavy paint on them and them stood up. i know this coz of the runs going down the wheel and falling off the edge!

Im sorry to bring this up on the forum but i dont like being ****ed about, im in the same place i was 6 weeks ago with gold wheels, difference being the gold wheels didntn look like a 3 year old has attacked them with white paint. you mite say it cost you, but what has it cost me in pointless trips to you in petrol, and now having to pay AGAIN to get em sorted.

the wheels need to be on the car as the other wheels i got do not have road leagle boots on them so i cant just give them to any 1 to sort out over a 4-5 day period. Thanks for your help but no thanks. ill take it to the pros this time.

The runs on the wheels should flat down and polish up with a bit of patience Not ideal that you should be doing it, but have a go before stumping up to have them blasted.
