Question Touring Rims

I had the tsp for the front tires done. when I recieved my Z back theyhad gouged he rims ( this after warning them over and over ).
The said they knew a person who could make then as good as new. I was called and told thatthey looked like crap so they were sending them to another person who would really do it right. ( four days later ) I get called that its good to go. I go down... look at the rims.. at first glance they look okay.. then I start looking closer and see that the rims are gouged out along the outer edge.. were talking deep into the metal cuts. I told them that they were crazy if they thought I was going to take it that way. THey said.. okay. we will order new rims... I get a call a couple of days later... take the Z down... 20 mins later.. here comes my Z.... brand new rims and tires... they took them off a Z coming in and swapped my rims out... now... that was a few weeks ago... I did a full detail today and find that.. the color between the front rims and the rear rims is different.. the fronts are more soft solver and the rears are more metal flake... now.. its real hard to notice... but I know... do I complain about this? or go with the new rims and be happy?

PS when they replaced the rims and tires they scrapped up the lug holes... aint that nice!

sheesh

if you complain and go swap more wheels, you might get MORE damage...just keep the discolored rims....

Thats what I figured.. though... I have to take her back for the alignment.... it slightly off to the left... so the wheel is tilting right when I am going strait... just a slight bit.
