When I went there to enquire about my pothole f&$ked 19inchers, they said they don't do repairs in house anymore, but they send them to some place in Sydney.

They will take that wheel off and pop my spare on the car (ick - it's not an alloy, is it?? I haven't looked yet. Probably a steel one). It will take 5 working days to be repaired, which sounds like they are sending to Sydney, as mentioned above.I don't care if it gets sent to Mars, as long as it gets fixed. Thanks all.

The girl was very reassuring and said that my scratch was nothing compared to some of them that they do.They still do the repairs in-house - the only instance where they will send it off to Sydney is if it needs to be machined (and our 17" rims have no machining so do not need to be sent away).Car is booked it for Monday, 5 working days to fix. Hopefully my lease company will part with the cash for it though - $197.

You will end up scrathing them again anyway.

Guest jbible Guests Posted 02/06/04 10:33 AM Share Posted 02/06/04 10:33 AM QucikFit (formerly Wheel Factory) at 5 Silva Ave Queanbeyan, will send them to Sydney to fix, takes about a week. I scratched one of my 18's and they were going to charge me $220. I've learned to live with it for the moment but might lash out and get it fixed but will probably only do it again some time later. The 18's have a shiny finish so stands out even more than the 17's !!
