Wow, sorry to hear about your terrible dealer experience. I have had many bad ones too. My wheels are ruined as well, the dealer said that "its normal". Now my back seat has a crack in the leather, the dealer said "its a cut". oh...ok. I am so tired of fighting with dealers over stuff they should fix. I thought Infinity would be better than toyota or the others but no, they are worse.

i could still sh*t a brick when i think about it!They were mint going in (just like you)
They came back ruined (much worse then yours, picture same type of damaged but all the way around)
They said they have nothing back there that would cause this (just like they told you)
They tried to tell me they could have been like that prior to them getting my car. Problem is the worker who washed it admitted to me that this wasnt the case.
So now I have a letter from a rim shop stating some type of chemical solution destroyed my clear coat along with the quotes.
The only thing I have going for me, I am bringing this to the owner of the dealership, the service manager has been very helpful I must say, he was even extremely upset. The manager of the wash bays is being a total #)%* and even had the nerve to call me a liar, and tried to compare my $4500 rims to the steel wheels and painted rims they wash on a daily basis. This is where i pulled in his worker who cleaned the car. He even tried to buff out the marks for an hour and just added tons of scratches all the way around. So I left it at that, and managed to track down the owner of the dealership and I let him know what happened. He asked me to bring in the quotes so hopefully all works out, if not I will be extremely upset.

I really am not considering to having them redone because I heard they never come out the same so I basically either want them changed over to chrome plated or a new set. It's a horrible feeling and i feel bad for you but I found it funny because
