So i had my wheels done in gloss black because they were curbed and looking worse for wear. I thought i would go to a professional and pay over the odds..... and 5 weeks later.....
and 2 more are cracking in the same area. is this kind of thing corrected for free does anybody know?

That is not a paint chip, it would have gone down to base, primer or edge and not like that
Poor finish?

I would definitely complain mate, it looks like something like a big stone has kicked up and hit the wheel, it shouldn't chip off like that though, I'd be fuming to, I slightly curbed my powdercoated alloys the other day pulling onto my drive, I nearly punched myself lol

Crap job, I'd imagine most reputable places would give some sort of warranty.
