(IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif) I feel sick, im still shaking from disbelief....
i am getting the hood painted just befor the hershey show, dropped it off yesterday, they said i could pick it up friday. So today I drive by for a sneak peek. I walk into the office and ask if i could take a look. Woman says paint shop is not here it is two blocks away, and she says no problem... I am next to the getto. the paint shop is inside the getto. google earth if you dont believe me. caroline and bank st. baltimore md 21231 anyway, i drive by to notice my car, with the front hood missing sitting on the side of the road. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) i park and run over to take a look... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) my subwoofer is sitting there out in the open, next to my battery jumper box, new cv axle, and polished fuches wheel with brand new rubber on it. I couldnt believe it, there was nobody around. Then i try the door handle and sure enough it is open, my tech tips, bosh fuel injection, and chiltons were on the seat. My cd player face was in the glove with my cds. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) I go inside the building and find nobody, just the smell of paint, i call out hello.... nothing, i walk into an adjascent building and there are 4 guys sitting at a table talking, none of which speak english. I am angry, they cannot help me. I walked outside nobody followed me, and i cleaned out my car, took the spare, left only the tireboard and 2 seats. then i locked it and left. what would you do??

you could paint it yourself
and then paint it again by the third time around you should be able to get it mostly right and by doing it this way not only do you save money, you get high from the fumes, you learn how to block sand, wet sand and apply clear coat that looks textured, and then you learn to polish..... don't ask me how i know and i would do it all over again! heck i might have to (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) i would rather this than entrust my car to a shop |
