Gutted, make sure you document it with photos e.t.c. so there can be no doubt what you have asked them to fix.
If it's the other sides company then there's no reason it shouldn't be right..it's not like you're paying for a cheap job. They should be paying to put your car back to pre accident condition.
To be fair stuff like this is why my Hail damage never got me repaired. I've seen terrible jobs on easy to repair stuff..how much did I trust them to remove all the windows and headlining, rod the bigger dents out of it..skim and fill the rest and bonnet. Then refit the windows and paint it all to match the the rest..
The chances of the car surviving that without leaks and mismatched panels..zip.
Yeah I have done. I said to them "don't worry about putting the stripe back on, because I'm gonna take it off and it'll be more work for you". The chap understood this fine, but the message that got to the paint bloke was "please don't touch the stripe, leave it on the car". Literally as far from what I wanted as is humanly possible.
And I explained even if that is what I'd asked for, it's still a botch job.
Still don't know who's paying yet - it should be him but haven't heard it's been settled. :bang:
Exactly - wish I'd never sent it in. Would've been less painful forking out for a custom set of vented wings or something aftermarket than this. In hindsight and with more research, I now realise I can choose the garage I go to. Didn't realise this at the time.
Currently sitting watching "Real housewives of some American armpit".
If your significant other has never foisted this utter **** upon you hold them close and never let them go...Like Towie with less class.
Not this, nor does she watch Love Island or whatever, but I have sat through three/four hours of RuPaul's drag race.
