Damn sorry to see all this... Hope it gets fixed quickly and correctly...
Makes me appreciate my body guy...
Hes not the fastest, but its always a perfect color match and smooth coat every time.
Many people think it came from the factory how it is.

sorry man. are they gonna fix it free of charge? and i know what you mean, people may not notice it from far away. but it's your car, you will and you want it to be perfect! Especially if you're paying for it!

they better pay for it. That looks like crap. I am very **** about my car too and I've gone through some horrors too. Have them fix it and get it right this time.

Well all.....I got my hood back today....and yah, looks Soooooo much better. Originally, when I took it back, they were talking about touch up, but to my pleasent suprise, they stripped it and started over.

At least to me, that was a very good sign. Alot of things could have been done, but to start over from scratch at there expense and get it back made me very happy.
