this guy drops off his 350z to get a lip kit put on and the car comes back a complete disaster

HORRIBLE body shop experience - details inside. 350z ruined. - MY350Z.COM Forums

It's sad that shop would actually do this to a car and think its OK. Drywall screws and pieces of wood are not for body work on cars. A blind man could see this is a bad job.

I showed this to my dad who has a 350Z and he almost cried. I can't get over the side skirts WOW

reminds me of the Taliban ****s i bought my civic from. and from the goat ****er that painted my civic.

soo many ****ing butchers around. every stupid ****, who can't afford getting profesional work done to his car, and has nothing better to do with his time, starts manually modify is car and then he thinks he's a mechanic.

i'm soo ****ing sick of it. and i don't even want to remember the toronto scene, with everyone saying they know who's got the best shop, etc, and everybody letting you down.

Personally i've come to the conclusion, that the most fun you'll have with a car is when you lease . No stress

Wow that is some poor quality , dark or not with so much of it ****ed you'd see something and know it wasn't right.

These guys are idiots, from the people who did the work to the one's who took the car back in that condition. Always inspect, never assume.

I saw this thread a week or so ago, and naturally posted it at turbododge. But yeah all the wood screws aside, what gets me is they're not even in a straight row!

exactly ... allthough it would be painful to go from a wrx to a civic. but i would much rather drive 3 different 14 second cars now a days ... in 4 - 5 years, rather than a 13 second modded car for the same period of time.

in the end what do the mods get you . . . tickets . . . and for some, a chance to deal with north america's finest 17 year old mechanics and car tuners and their missaligned wooden screws. I don't think i've ever had one bit of professional work done on my H22 civic, throughout all it's existance. All I did while moding it, was going from taliban shop to taliban shop, ( if it were domestic you'd replace turban with mullet ), and dealing with people that just wanted a quick buck nothing more past that, sorting through millions of aftermarket bullshit.

bleah ... i love my bicycle

By far, the best shot out of them all.. Dry wall screws!

BAHAHAHAHAH

Surprisingly, this car WASNT build in Canada.

its a long post to read but basically the guy left the car and was supposed to have it back within a few days. took a few weeks and when they got there they found that and took the car before he could **** anything else up
