Goodyear wants me to let them have it for two days to make it all right but I'm terrified of using them again and they aren't giving me much of an option. Manager is a super nice guy but their shop guys suck. Manager is asking for another chance to make it. I have decided on whether to stick with the metallic or let them correct it.

I had the wheels rebalanced at classic and the scratch is on the inside so right now everything is fine if I can deal with the metallic finish instead of satin. Just worried of more issues with GY

Don't settle on a finish if it's not what you asked for. You'll regret it every time you look at them.

Your right and I already do regret it. Just hate that I have to drop it off for two days again and worry about them f*cking it up. Already put too much money into this car...

Learned my lesson Loop.... Im just glad I did the walk around with them before they changed the tires and discussed this possibly happening. Its clear they have kids that dont care about their quality of work and the business....

BTW - Goodyear CS has been very supportive, their claim people on the other hand are a bunch of jokes.

I got mine for SJM

Got the plug n play kit with 3 GM Ice Blue lights.

My ss already had the doors so I had to do the dash.

I followed this:

Does take some time but worth it!
