Unhappy

Well there an aluminum color and it's chipping away and under it is a rusty gold looking color. Were they painted? Is this in any way under warranty, their factory wheels. Should I just get some spray paint and take care of it or get new one's?

Looking back through the service records, I noticed the center caps on my LX 450 had been replaced due to "discoloration". Don't remember the year or milage that this occured (I wasn't the owner at the time), but it was probably the same problem you are experiencing. It was warranty work so no price was given either.

Thumbs up WARRANTY WORK!!!

I like the sound of that, I wonder it my car is still covered, it's a 97'.

Well thanks for the reply Jody and I'm dying to hear about your car, tell me what's up, were the only two people on this forum that I know of who actually own LX's and actually post!
