After 1 initially crap set of plates turned up i had 2 wait bleeding ages 4 the revamped uns 2 get made, which in fairness they were quite happy to do & it did take an age kuz the co was having troubles shall we say. Happy as a pig in shyte when they came as they did look pretty boss as per:



So all is good.............
Untill after but a few weeks they end up looking like this:





which is thoroughly disappointing & while i've tried to contact the suppliers i have had no reply to various e-mails so yes i will try calling them tomorrow 2 c if i get more joy but in the mean time any1 had previous problems & if so wot/is the cause looks like it's just crap quality where sum absorbany thingy has taken on water & gone 2 sh#t!!!
Yer forts plz gents (&ladies of course) & yes damn right i will name & shame if i dont get a suitable response

Tell us who they are mate, as I am about to order some myself, and would prefer to avoid such quality tradesmen!

By the looks of it the backing is coming unstuck from the plastic bit, it's either got greasy during assembly or it's cheap crap..... or both!

Demand your money back!

Looks like they havent been sealed properly. Show them those pics and you should get replacements or your money back.

Looks like the image was printed with poor ink, they shouldn't run even if you took the plastic off. and the plates weren't sealed very well.
