Hi Fish
It was meant to be full glass out but they didn't remove the rear glass at all. The overall quality is poor. Their main painter guy left after a disagreement just after my car arrived, I wasn't told this. I wasn't confident they would do it any better if I asked them to do it again. They had it 10 weeks. If I left it with them to 're do, they weren't going to hurry and the summer would be gone. I wasn't able to check progress due to lockdown and they never sent me any pictures, despite asking several times. I thought about taking it to court but they are not the sort of guys who would pay up willingly.

Did you pay up front? Feel gutted for you mate.

[Tractor Dave]

No pay, no car

[fish]

Only one thing left to do then. Set the place on fire, haha. No, seriously though. Feel very sorry for you. Did they give you any sort of discount? You didnt actually get what you ordered... If you said glass out, and half the glass was left in i mean.

[Tractor Dave]

Yes, a very big discount but doesn't make it look any better

What's wrong with the paint exactly Dave? There are certain things which can be fixed after painting.

[Tractor Dave]

Fish eyes, poor prep, orange peel, poor masking, paint drips, over spray. Everything that could be wrong is wrong

A good detailer could potentially improve on some of those things. Clear coat can be wet sanded, which could remove orange peel, overspray and drips. If it has not been "detailed" at all there could be a substantial improvement to be made anyway...
Let me know if you want any further info.

Cheers,

Steve

Quite true my friend. But as been said. If the car hasn`t been detailed yet, there can be massive improvements to be done.. Still wont justify them beeing ar53 h0les though.

Cheers mate. We need a meet!

Yes mate we do - Ill give you a call today

[Rikki Kitto]

Send Lago a PM and he will tell you all about them.

Does it involve drilling holes in the bottom of the strut

No, not at all. They are special support rings that go in the bush to prevent it collapsing. A very clever idea, simple and effective.

My heated rear window switch was doing strange things, turning itself on and off randomly whilst driving. The rear wiper was also not working.
I think I found the culprit.


I’m replacing all of the wires. Two had separated completely and nearly all the others were damaged.
