so i painted my center dash strip...

[keleko]

well, had it painted
and they screwed it up

had to take the car in to get the clock/radio display fixed, so i figured that'd be a good time to paint the strip
i took it out, dropped off the car and picked it up the next day (free rental car, warranty work ftw )

anyway, get the car back, and i notice marks that weren't there before


circled in red are marks where there never were before
toolmarks? :



buffed right through the paint to take out a bump, jackasses
you can see the fake carbonfiber pattern showing through:

dude, **** painting.. why didn't you just buy the piano black trim piece that comes STOCK on the sp23 and install it yourself?
it's ONLY 74 bucks *retail*! the money you paid on paint, labor, and time could've just paid for the stock s*** that WON'T FADE and is glossy SMOOTH

yes TIME = MONEY

gunther wanted $164 for the ******* thing!

$164 is stupid markup
