JBOB 0 Posted December 22, 2005 I went back to the bodyshop seeing as they had promised me that the car would be ready this week (fingers crossed) But they haven’t touched it :x and say that the spray booth has been broken and the guy was on his way to fix it today :roll: :roll: Would have been nice to get a call from them :( So now its going to be the first week of January that I pick the car up. I really wanted the car back before xmas as the work is an xmas present from my g/f and were off to Paris on boxing day and wanted to relax not worry about my car :roll: :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JBOB 0 Posted December 22, 2005 JBOB, not going to be on the recomended bodyshops thread then!! :lol: :lol: I think not :lol: The work they have done so far is spot on so I cant fault them for that its just the way the place is managed. Jumping from job to job without finishing isn’t really the way a business should be run IMO. From what the "workers" have said behind management back is that they are getting a bit pissed off with the complaints from customers cos the owner/manager just want as much work (money) in as possible.

ZippyVR6 0 Posted December 22, 2005 Well although you might be getting on the managements case, at least you can have a chat with the people that are actually going to do the work. They may be inclined to get it sorted properly dispite the owner being a gereedy git. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JBOB 0 Posted January 5, 2006 I went away over Xmas/New year (Paris 8) ) So I was expecting to go to the BS today and see it all back together and waiting for me seeing as that’s what was promised. Guess what :lol: :lol: Its nearly ready :roll: Im told my the sprayer that its going to be done today and tomorrow and should be ready for collection on Monday. these pics were taken last night by the sprayer and the paint hasn’t been flattened or had any lacquer yet and still looks the dogs................ :lol: Roll on Monday Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
