Apparently the paint needs to be in pretty good condition for wrap. Not too worried about all that at the moment anyway.
Getting the rust fixed is up on my list of priorities. I just need the money from my Vento to get that list started lol.
Keep the rust. Makes the car lighter.
So my adapters arrived...wrong. They're only single piece not 2 piece.
Here's what I'm pissed off about:
I paid for 2 piece adapters (a good $100 more)
2 piece adapters were safer and a better design.
I already bought lug nuts for the studs that were supposed to be protruding from the adapter. Now I have some 14mm lug nuts.
I sent emails back confirming what I wanted prior to them fabricating them. They told me what I was getting. I didn't get what I was told.
So pissed off and returning them is way too much hassle, now I'm stuck with something I didn't want in the first place but it will serve the same purpose. They sent torque specs for attaching the wheels, which is good.
I demanded a refund for the difference in price between the 2 piece and 1 piece adapters. The lug nuts were like $25, I can live with that.
Buying **** from America :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
That sucks man, first time I've ever heard negative feedback about Adeptec. Hopefully they refund you the difference or send you the right adapters and pay for the postage to return the ones you got or something!
never had any problem with them either.
Have a picture of what you received?
They're the same as the H&R ones I think, just a simple slab of aluminum. They came with 12mm hex lug bolts, they are perfectly hub centric and wheel centric. Quality isn't an issue.Quote:

Can't argue with results, they look awesome! That's the 50mm on the rear. I love the way the face pokes more than the rim!!!
I'm taking them to an industrial powder-coater on Friday.
Devo about your experience dude. Chances of having the wheels on before eurofest?
Bugger to hear that. I've never had trouble with adaptec either.
If someone buys my Vento, yes they will be on for eurofest lol. I have a lot on my plate at the moment.
Even if they're not on for eurofest, I'll chuck some mad spacers behind my rear Borbets to have -1 offset hahaha
