I noticed one of the rear tires looked low this morning and since the valve stems are on the inside of the wheel I would pull the rim off, air it up and wipe down the inside of the rim. While I was wiping it down I knocked off one of the stick on weights they used to balance the wheels. :wtf SO I put the rim in the trunk and haul it up to Discount tire where I had them mounted and balanced. I was sitting inside waiting and watched the guy roll it out to the car and put it back in the trunk. When I walked to the car I popped the trunk to make sure they put the valve stem cap back on, they had. The wheel looked a little dirty from grease but figured I had to clean them anyways. When I get home and unload the wheel to put back on the car I noticed the nut job at discount used what looks to have been a metal hammer to reinstall the center cap after they balanced it. :wtf. The center cap is powder coated just like the center of the wheels..... After I put the tire back on I took the Mustang up to discount and showed the asst manager. They were really pretty cool about it and are going to pay for a replacement. He wanted to order a new cap and then have me have it powder coated and bring them the bill but I told him I would call Budnik and have them have it powder coated so it matches the wheel since they are the ones that powder coated it. Are people really that stupid, its not like they had the janitor balance the tire.... :wtf
Here's a shot of the wheel and center cap..before the damage
