But the hood scoop looks good now lol.

Needless to say, I went back to the shop and chewed the owner out. The running paint that's collecting has to dry before it can be color sanded and fixed AGAIN. Next Tuesday I'll bring the car back to get repaired once more......This **** is getting ridiculous. I just want my B back in normal condition...Stayed tuned for more updates....fawk!

So how did you select this shop? Insurance recommendation, word of mouth, cheapest quote? Just curious.

Jez crash, that really sucks man. If I was you I'd just ask for my money back and take it to a different shop. They clearly don't know what they are doing and seem to be just as careless as they are clueless. Sounds like they're really screwing you over. Hope you get everything worked out...

You didn't like that lexus?!

Since you are kind of in my area, care to drop the name of the shop? Seems like a place I would want to avoid at all costs.

The shop where I had the clutch done that dented my car is called Valaya, the body shop where my car is being repaired is called guerrero body. Both are located in San Jose. According to the owner of valaya, I'm the first dent in 2 years and the biggest one as well in the existence of the shop. Lucky lucky me.

The reason why my car was at this particular body shop because it's the shop he has used in the past. I didn't think it was going to turn out like this. From now on, if any kind of **** like this happens I'm going to my own people who I know what **** up my car. I should've done this from the beginning.

The shop is paying for all of this. The owner has been more than co-operative with the whole ordeal. It seems that I'm just having a string of horrible bad luck, or am I?
