    I almost think it has to be a joke it is so bad, never seen such a disaster from a shop in my life.

    That is very very poor... Can't believe someone who owns a shop would be able to put out work like that!

    Could have done better myself

    If its true, then poor poor kid!

    My roommate owns a 350Z and I love that car. I can't imagine this bull happening. Some shops are just [beep].

    How are going to sue for your own stupidity? You heard bad things about the guy and his work and you still decided to take your car to him.

    Penny wise, dollar foolish.

    If you scroll to the end of that thread, you'll see that people have been going by the guy's shop and physically threatening him. Now that's extreme.

    Re: Now this guy I do feel for...

    I browsed through that long thread...made me really cringe. Not only at the original topic, but just how much RICE there is!

    Also worth noting, the OP has 25MM+ spacers on each rim so his "not-designed-for-his-car" rims will fit...

    The world is full of morons.

    Amazingly bad work, though. How could anybody do that, he must be on drugs or mentally ill.

    Re: Now this guy I do feel for...

    OMG, I do feel bad for the guy, he has a nightmare to deal with. But when I read through that first post with all the pictures and comments he left, I couldn't help but crack up. Like someone said earlier, the car is so messed up it seems like a joke. Wood screws, wood spacer, bents and dents, runs, overspray, peeling/flaking paint,etc etc...I would not want the car after that.

    I feel bad for the guy, but just from the pictures I've seen of this "body shop" would have sent me running.

    I'm still amazed that this guy actually took his car back with all that damage. Amazing what "thrifty" can cost you in the long run.
