I looked and I was like...no big deal. I cant see screws in the pics and then WHAM...THAT BULGE IS NUTS!!!! A body shop did that and gave it to you as "done"??? That stinks, if thats the case they must not have any pride in how their stuff looks and dont give two cents about referral work.

wow.....that is a big bulge. i would go crazy on that body shop and make them fix that.


and if they dont listen to you when you say they have to fix it, just remember that people start to listen if you make a big scene in front of other customers.


i'm baaaaack!!

Seriously take that back to the shop and freakin scream, cause for me, I would actually have that in my mind that they damaged the kit if there is a huge bulge like that when there wasnt one before. What did they give you in writing before they did the work? Did they say "We are gonna make it so there is gonna be a huge bulge in the bumper ok?". That bulge is obvious and they know its there, they are just trying to get away with not putting in the work for the money you paid. /rant

sorry I just get kinda irked when companies do this even when it isnt to me.

Wow that sucks. About the only way I could think of to fix it is cut that section of fiberglass out and re glass it, or is it a urathane kit? If it's bulging because it's being squeezed in and it's buckling then you could cut a section out and reglass it. Sorry, it's kinda hard to explain a decent way to do it with out pictures or a drawing. Also take the screws out and glass over them or fill them with body filler. My kit took a lot of work to get it to fit right, it was a real pain.

Sorry to hear about your ordeal, But i still would go back and explain that your dad did not have an idea of YOUR CAR and that it's very Obvious of that Bulge and that they need to correct that mistake otherwise I know myself personally I make a big deal .... well up to BBB and any other agency just to get there attention. Good Luck and Hope you get it fix.

F man, who cares if your dad signed off, take it there make a huge scene, and maybe people will direct their business away from them, if they arent willing to fix it, it shows how crappy of a place it is, just to wreck some of their business would be worth it. Or someday go sit in their lot and be like here before you go in take a look at my car and see the quality of work they do. Thats just insane that they would let something like that go out like that, i sure the f wouldnt want my name on that.

Since your dad was the one to make you go there, and paid for it, make him pay to fix it. Especially when he signed off on it.

ya know, i think it's an angel in disguise..

the bumper is hideous, and flows with the rest of the kit like a major highway flowing into the side of a mountain...

go back, tell them it sucks, and order a new one for someone else to put on.

and sell that one on ebay for a few 100 bucks.

Because the guy said he could cut a part of it out put it back together and make it flat ... I decided today while at work I like the back bumper and side skirts but I'm going to just order a new front bumper I thought I would like it I don't ... so any ideas on a front bumper that would flow with the rest of the body kit? I'm very pissed and a body shop offered to fix ... there thing is "body kits" and I've seen some cars they have done I think I might let them try and fix it first my buddy works there so he will work on it for free ... I mean really what do I have to lose? lol not a dang thing but I am for sure ordering a new front bumper
