I cannot believe a shop would even think to give a car back looking like that. Dude that really sucks.

looks like your front lip is @!#$... I've seen them before and it looked nothing like that.

Was this body shop located in a garage behind a rundown bar on the outskirts of some small Mexican village? That is some of the crappiest work I have seen.

lol it wasnt macco.. it was a family friend i guess...

my uncle went to high school with the guy who owns the shop, and we (my family) have taken our cars there in the past.. now my car will never go back there (after he fixes wut he did)

i would demand whatever money you paid, to have it back, if not I would take them to court.

and the one thing i wouldnt do, is have it "FIXED" by the people who "WRECKED" it in the first place...


and I really dont like the front lip, I cant wait to see better pics



Re: got my car back from the body shop

^ yea well.. im gonna have them fix it first, and if they cant do that.. then i go into wanting my money back and yadda yadda... hes a family friend as i said before.. so he gets a second chance

and yea when its all fixed ill post more pics

i went back and talked to him...

they fixed my headlights / corner right there
fixed my dome light
said he would sand the paint and buff it to get rid of imperfections / bubbles
said they would repaint the mirrors
buying new taillights
fixing the front spoiler

so when its all said and done i hope its great

its will definently look HAWTNESSSSSSS. Cant go wrong with a red cavy! I like all the parts on the car! Front lip isnt my fav but i think i looks better than that rksport lip thing. Nice car!






Re: got my car back from the body shop

thanks and i dunno wut to do about the front, i was considering big mouth.... but i dunno now that i have the fogs i kinda like the not so flashy look of the lip, and i think this lip looks 10x better than the ls sport lip.. just my opinion and i like it so it stays

btw thanks for the compliment, ur car is HAWTNESSSS too
