Need Help... Need to Rethread wheels

Does anyone know where I could possibly get my center of my rim (where the center caps go)rethreaded. The problem is that the morons at NTB put my center caps on wrong and destroyed the threading on my rims and can't screw the caps back on.

I don't know where I could get this done... or even where to start...what kind of shops... any help would be great.

it's not just the threading on my center cap.. it's the threading on the actual rim too... so I can't just get a new center cap.

You need to take a bite out of NTB. . I've had them screw up stuff on my vehicles before and gotten them to pay for repair/replacement

are you serious Cason? Was it a big hassle with NTB? Because I don't think I can really prove that NTB is responsible for the damages done to my rim.

Absolutely. I'd go down and spend a little time harassing the @ssholes that caused the problem...and I'd win or I'd hurt their business. Paper is cheap and I can make a hell of a lot of copies.

To me, it's really not about hassle or even money. It's about them training the worthless individuals that they are sticking out in the shop to work on my vehicle.
