Re: Finally!
Bag91; This was a re-do paint job. It was previously painted and they forgot to do a final fine prep sand on the passenger side and i could see sanding scratches showing thru. The original cost to do it was $4200.00 the car was disassembled , painted , then reassembled. There are No Tape marks or seams. The shop was called Auto Collision Center, but for obvious reasons (cant follow instructions) they are no longer in business.
Kahjdh; While the battle was unpleasant, I would have to say it was definately worth it. I fianlly got what i paid for and wanted in the end & would have never been happy with it the way it was. I put all of my expectations in writing and went over it verbally with everyone there to be sure we were all on the same page and still they failed to follow instructions. It was a VERY costly mistake on their part when they had to re-do their work. That reading thing catches a lot of people nowadays it seems. |

After that....new Carpet & floor mats, headliner , visor, & sail panels, doorpanels, & leather on the seats. Not that the interior is in bad shape or anything - just want to upgrade to leather and want everything to color match perfecly. |

Re: Finally!
Im staying with the original color scheme which is Medium Dark Grey - that way all of my trim panels will match .
Although i am considering having a darker grey or black inserts added in the 2 seat panels (lower back & butt) . Just cant decide if thats what i want or not. One minute I think thats what I want and the next i'm thinking about staying with a solid color- decisions decisions. |
