Default Remember my pitted rim thread???? Update!!

Remember this? http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show...78&forum_id=10

Well, I emailed Corvettes of Houston (the vendor I got the rims from) and told them about the problems & emailed them the pics. Well, I spoke to Chris there & he did some investigating. Well, he just called me back & said he's ordering & shipping me 4 new chromies!!! They're even sending me a call tag to return to them my rims...
If they do what they say, I'd say that this is customer service & backing up a warranty at it's finest!!
Kuddos to Corvettes of Huston!!!

Yes, I am stoked! No reason to doubt it, but I'll believe it when the new chromies arrive in a week or so.
They've been on the car a little over a year & a half. They came w/ a 3 yr. warranty though.

If Chris said it, take it to the bank! I've bought several items from them, and they are the first ones I look at when I need anything. Way to go Chris and Corvettes of Houston!
