Wow....i can't believe shops stay in business with this sh*tty work.

-Ant.

[d_day87]

wow... thats pretty much ridiculous

[On_Her_Face]

did he do it the cheap way, if so, i don't feel sorry

[flak_monkey]

That's terrible. I would have beaten the shop owner to death with that POS work he did. With the wood screws still in.

[chico78]

i threw up.

[Kevykev]

Maybe it was part of game show, it's the only valid explanation.

"Build a car in 60minutes"

?

[slow_hatch]

Lol, I can't believe that dumba$$ 350z owner paid the guy. WTF????? :eek: I would have been furious, no way in hell I would put up with that crap, then give the man what he asked for. F that :screwy:

[Member31410]

Wow

[SUBY_RUE]

I see work like that come into the bodyshop I work for all the time, and we have to fix it. I dont see how shops can do work like that and keep there doors open.

[The Youngn]

Wow....wtf was that

[Julio]

I dont know why i was laughing........ while looking at the pics... That **** is almost out of a comedy skit...

Amazing..

[G.C]

wow i feel bad for that kid. He paid 750$ for that bullsh!t. Cant believe they put a dam wood lol

[9ussy]

750 for that? pssshhhh..

[dumpdaccord]

lol...he paid $750 for them to do $3k in damages....

he might as well total it so he can get another car and start over

[BKgen®]

holy hell... that's redonkulous. looks like it was painted by a ROCKSTAR! :lmao:

[x Resilience]

OMFG

[Atlblkz06]

So... this guy just paid the bill, said thanks and left???

[Echonova]

holy hell... that's redonkulous. looks like it was painted by a ROCKSTAR! :lmao:That was so wrong, yet funny at the same time...:lmao:

[Grimm Reeper]

Paint runs, over-spray on tires, a thousand screws per panel. the whole job was just full of FAIL.

[VooDooXII]

I should go into the body shop business...good amount of cash, and that doesn't look too hard.

:screwy:

[Elbow]

holy hell... that's redonkulous. looks like it was painted by a ROCKSTAR! :lmao:

I was gonna say the same thing lol. Or maybe they are affiliated with eachother?

It's all about making money, screw the customer and work :goodjob:

[bimmergirrl]

That was horrible.

[patrick4588]

he's stupid for paying for it and signing off. he may have screwed himself there...

[Motivation]

:screwy:

:lmfao: It's not hard when you do it that way... But it is hard to get repeat business.

Wow, when I went to college for this, my teacher would have killed me if I would have ever even mentioned doing that to a car... Wouldn't have mattered if it was a pinto or a geo metro... There's no good excuse for that.

[Ol' Gregg]

buuuhhhh ahhahahahahahaha! i worst nightmare! wow i wonder how it got resolved

[Nemesis]

I cant lie, I looked at the pics first before reading the post, and thought to myself....Rockstar did it again :-X lulz

[Motivation]

Now Nemesis, don't kid yourself... You know for a fact, that Rockstar would've been too lazy to use that many screws. :lmfao:

[nreggie454]

Apparently that guy also ruined two of YokataS13's cars after he flew him from California to Japan to paint them (from what I have read).

[DunDunSkeert]

:goodjob:Wow that looks so much better than stock!:bump:

[puregroove]

I wonder if the guy did his homework before handing it over to a shop that would do his car like that. [didn't look past the pics.]

[KevinT707]

I honestly thought it couldn't be too bad but boy was I wrong when I saw the pics!

[josh green]

Thats all I would have done for $750.

[xlilvi3tx]

:screwy:

LMFAO! But god damn that is bad. Even backyard ghetto sh it looks better then that sh it! I mean what the hell......? :thinking:

[HeLLo iM iZzY]

He got what he payed for.

If he can afford to drive a 350z and mods then why could he not have taken it to a reputable shop? Who cares if it was going to be maybe a grand more or maybe even more then a grand. At least, you know when you get the car back that there will be no issues like this.

[lilmanx01]

um wow. im scared to take my car to a shop now

[DC2NR]

What's sad is that they used f*cking wood screws. Lolz....

It's sad how they can call themselves a shop when they do work like that.

[G.C]

This store "Rockstar" that everyone keeps on talking bout, Is it like the worst shop you can take your car to do bodywork for?

[Nismo]

Yes, picture that car in the link, but with half as many screws (they are lazy like that) and thats them. I guess if you like orange peel goto rockstar, other wise..... Check out this link. http://www.monsterguide.net/how-to-paint-a-car.shtml You can do it your self better and cheaper!

[Sport1.3]

he paid $750, he got a $750 job

[Deke]

I hope you're wrong about this.

[rrutter81]

qft although it looks like a 400.00 job.

i especially love the deck screws and it looks like he rattle canned it.

[Ran]

lol, wow

[UpSideDownDesi]

very few shops around here do business ethically....i lost trust in shops long time ago

[nreggie454]

I hope you're wrong about this.



Another instance was with someone in Japan. He liked Mike's good work so he paid for a plane ticket to paint two of his cars in Japan. 2 weeks later, Mike finishes and takes off back home. The guy in Japan finds a lot of things wrong with the cars and to make a long story short, he sold the parts in the cars and scrapped them. He demanded a refund of the plane ticket and labor. Mike has only paid him back about 500 to this day. This happened earlier this year.

Some other stuff is posted throughout the thread, pics of the car on page 22.

[chaseamundo]

I would seriously burn that sh1t down...whole shop....him in it

[carbon_crash]

Did Rockstar Motorsports do this? JW, after a few paint jobs I've seen on here by them

[4DrTeg]

so y would u paint the tires??

[umairejaz]

Thats all I would have done for $750.

I'm not in the body work business but are you serious?

[umairejaz]

$750 - $500 in supplies and overhead = $250 = a good three days of hard labor.

That looks like anything but that.

[cactusEG]

Holy shit ! Bad paint runs, missing screws. The killer is the wood screws !

[93gcsedan]

Um did the guy even do research on the shop or on different shops. That just seems very dumb to me, I would ask to see the shops work before I chose them.
