Car appreciation... the aesthetics, the engineering, etc

How bad are the chips? Small ones often appear at the edges over time anyway so it might be fine...
If he's packaged them that badly, ask for a new set, I say.

They're not too bad. I've re-wrapped them up properly for the journey home, so when I get home and un-wrap them I'll take a photo. I'm just a bit miffed. I don't mind paying more if someone does a decent job. £120 for track compound pads all round including delivery is a good enough deal that I'd bang an extra tenner on for decent packaging.
