I know how you feel Dave last two times
i took my car in i have had to go back
with the kick your ass attitude for a job they should have done the first time.
and one bozzo wanted to get payed again for work they screwed up..
and they still screwed up..
Get a clip board and mark out every thing you want to have done..
when i say everting i mean everything
inside gas lid inside trunk lip ect or these areas will not recieve paint...
make a sketch of the car pointing out stone chips and body work to be done
stress the fact that you will not take second best that all work will be done
to a perfect perfection as for the payment price mentioned by them
have them walk around the car with you and have them note the areas
that you have concern with...
have two copys of this to be signed by both
and never pay them before the work is done to as you want..
If they refuse to sign this then you just saved yourself a big headack for sure.
If they do this is a contract and will hold up in court..
Make sure you also get a quote on paper from them before leaveing
and get them to sign it this way no matter what they do after this it is still in the quote and that is what you pay...
Might seem like alot of B.S. but it will sure save on white knuckles..
Good luck on the paint job for the car...
