So, in your own words, if "I care" I have to send you a PM to get a response ??? Why not just post your experience here so everyone else can hear from you exactly what has happened ??? I guess you don't want to though becasue as I stated before, you aren't getting new fenders painted at the factory but having them painted at some body shop with non factory paint which will make your car worth less.
If I'm wrong, please feel free to correct me....otherwise your continued silence and hesitation about posting publically will answer my question.
Thanks again for being so helpful to other members.

So if I am understanding you correctly, you start a thread seeking everyone's help and advice, the members respond, and then when someone asks what the final resolution was, you basically tell us all to f--- off if we didn't PM you to show we care. NICE.

Lets recap -
You asked about DENTS
I gave a possible reason for them, and why I didn't think it's a big deal and actually makes the car even more unique.
I then went on to provide you with valuable information regarding how you will, most likely, not be able to get factory painted replacements and the issues that go along with such a decision, ie third party paint non/nano tech and I even suggested the best body shop in LA.
You said your dealer would be replacing them and they would be painted at the factory.
I then asked you point blank if you would be receiving FACTORY PAINTED replacement fenders and you have dodged the question every since, taken your situation and communications offline and via PM. I'm really not quite sure why you're being such a ***** becasue I happen to like the creases in my car
it's my car...and your's is your's.... to do whatever we want with. So get off your f'ing high horse bro and answer the question. If you have gotten yours replaced and factory painted it benefits everyone here....or were you going to keep it your little secret ??It's a simple question, and again, if you can't answer it here....then that says plenty.

Received recent contact from MBUSA but in my opinion... it's way late on an issue that was brought to their attention by many owners many months ago.
