THE WORK ABSOLUTLY ****** SUCKS THE BIGGIESTN HAIRIEST BALLS!

I didn't really over look it till I took her home and decided to bathe her since she was covered in dust!

1) The BONDO was not shaved smooth as all!
2)Over spray I guess...like you can tell theres two layers not one.
3) THEY DROPPED MY TAILLIGHT! Its ****** SCUFFED and corner is chipped!

Now he's done work for me in the past AND IT CAME OUT GREAT AND ON TIME (actually early) and at a great price!

NOW AS IN NOW TODAY! The Escahoe was 4 Days late. He promised me Sat! I called him and he has no Clue and tells me to come tomorrow!

This is obviously not a reputable shop. Do they offer a warranty? He should have given you a itemized final bill of what was done. Did it go through insurance? Now if this is one of those deals where you were paid from an insurance company to do it and then had it done at some hack shop I would be pissed at you because you are taking work away from reputable shops that do the work correctly and then complaining about it. But on the other hand, if you are taking the truck to the shop and the insurance is paying for the job( i'm assuming this because I think you said you were rear-ended?)and the shop does crappy work then have them re-do it. They might want to actually take the time to do some metal work and not fill the dents with major bondo. If they cant do it then they are not capable of doing quality work. REPUTABLE SHOPS GIVE ESTIMATES IN WRITING, GIVE A LIFETIME WARRANTY ON REPAIRS AND GIVE YOU AN ITEMIZED FINAL BILL WHEN REPAIRS ARE COMPLETE.

I see a crack in the LT taillamp in your first photo in the same location it broke off. Shop should have pointed it out to you.

No, No insurance since I have a $1,000 Deductable.

I've dealt with him before and he did great work at a great price and he was 4 days early. THIS was the complete opposite!

Sorry bro, but that worke is really f'ed up man. Sorry to see that happen. I'd take that back asap and MAKE them fix it. That's very poor work and business.
