Angry Damaged Lugs?

Has anyone had a problem with their lugnuts peeling? I got my 2001 TL at the end of January, and about 1 lugnut on each wheel is peeling already. I'm definitely going back to the dealer this week to complain & demand replacements. Makes the wheels look crappy!

Let me know what your dealer says. I bought mine at Wayne Acura. I'm going to try to get there one day early this week.

I'm just hoping that if I see my salesman, he'll help me out. Hopefully since it's only 3 months old, they won't di** me around too much. If they don't help me, I'm going straight to Acura. That's just poor quality for the $ we paid.

Same problem here, but it's probably because I took my wheels off so many times..
