if i order some wheel to paint match my car i would want it to match as close as posible.
"according to them its your fault" is not a good reason to save their a$$. i would see what else they can do for you.

This is what happend. I gave them the paint code and two weeks later (when the rims should have been ready and shipped) I get a call and saying they can't order the paint, because k52 dosen't exist. I was like..aaa...k52 does exist, thats right on the car. So they call the dealer, dealer dosent tell them. So more bs how its k32. So im like OK, if it's really K32, and your sure, Go ahead. So basically it's my fault for saying, "go ahead". Im done dealing with them though. They told me that this whole process would take two weeks from order to arriving at my house. It took almost 2 months! I called like 7-8 times after the two weeks were up. All I heard were excuses.

Here they are...

I agree with you...You know when I initially placed the order, everything sounded solid and trust worthy. The guy was polite, answerd all my ?'s and when I asked, "what happens if the color wouldn't match?" I heard, "Dont worry, we do this all the time, I'll make sure they come out correct"...Yeaaah..I could keep B***in at them. Wont do any good though. I called numerous times and recieved lie's about painting and shipping dates, called twice just to have them e-mail me an invoice( which I never got!). Whatever, there not worth my time..

I would actually call Sevas and let them know how bad that place is and not to deal with them anymore.
