After two weeks of waiting I findout that there was water in the fiberglass causing the paint to bubble and that the wing itself would have to be replaced under warranty.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I have not driven my car in over a month now, even after the install of the ROW M030. Why you ask? B/c I have had to get some paint workdone on the rear wing. I discovered that there were bubbles in the paint. So I took it back to the dealership (wing only) to have the paint work fixed (on going saga I must say) on their bill. I gave them the paint code for Ocean Blue as listed under the bonnet. After two weeks of waiting I findout that there was water in the fiberglass causing the paint to bubble and that the wing itself would have to be replaced under warranty. Alright then. Another two weeks later I finaly get the wing back. Looks good till I go to mount it to the uprights... lo and behold it is the wrong color. The color is more like a Lapis (more blue less purple). Perhaps they mixed the color wrong, input the wrong code, or the code is wrong on the car. The code was verified with the dealer before hand. Now I have to box it up and ship it back to the dealer for another respray, unless I can talk them into letting me get it done localy and sending them the bill. I compared to several body panels including the door jamb so I would know that it is not the Zaino paint treatment throwing off the color. Thoughts???
Sorry for the rant, just so ticked off! <img src="graemlins/soapbox.gif" border="0" alt="[soapbox]" /> <img src="graemlins/cussing.gif" border="0" alt="[grrrrrrr]" /> <img src="graemlins/crying.gif" border="0" alt="[crying]" /> <img src="graemlins/c.gif" border="0" alt="[ouch]" />
I should think a good body man would have recognized your fiberglass issue early on.
On the paint codes....never have trusted em myself, neither has my body shop (and they've done alot of painting for me...& know I'm a picky sun-of-a-gun).
Without the rest of the car sitting there and being able to compare in a variety of lights (before they shoot the whole thing) I think getting a real good match is a crap-shoot.....just my opinion.....GreggT
I left the dealership a "nice" message last night. I called them this morning and still have not heard back from them. I did speak to a local shop that does the work for the local dealership and they said that without the car there they would have a hard time matching the color. I am surprised to hear that there are several shades of Ocean Blue... why even bother having a paint code if there is still variation? I just wish the other shop would have been upfront and said that they could not get a match without something for comparison. I am going to have it done localy and try to send the bill to the dealer or work something out with them. I have had more paint issues with the Aero kit on this car, certainly worthwhile to order it from the factory.
Wonder if I should get the front bumper and hood repainted at the same time. Perhaps after I see how they did on the wing.
