Rancidpunx Brisbanes Resident Detailer Donating Members 950 Member For: 16y 14d Gender: Male Location: In my Cabin Outside Brisbane. Posted 01/06/09 08:46 AM Share Posted 01/06/09 08:46 AM Livid!!!! New rims, had them for 2-3 weeks and tonight on the drive home got pushed off the road by a tree lopping truck who merged without looking. Luckily theres no panel damage from what I can see and the font rim seems to have survived but the back, with dish, has a some chips and scuffs around the edge. Just slightly less than a quarter of the rims circumference is affected. Can anyone recommend a repairer on Brisbane northside ideally, but can travel.Got the company name and rego and will give them a call tomorrow to see if they will play ball but wont hold my breathe.

Posted 02/06/09 07:14 AM Author Share Posted 02/06/09 07:14 AM went to albion today, but because the rims have a machined finish they would have to send them away to be done. After some probing turns out they just forward them onto the place on the goldie, depulu, and then take a cut for themselves. Also told they would need the wheel for 3 weeks minimum. Will just take the wheel straight there at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
