Nice, who did those for you?

It's just so disappointing when people don't take pride in their work and expect customers to recieve it whether its right or wrong. I dont get it
You're right....they should have been embarassed for those to leave his shop

It's never a good idea to insult your customers
Especially here since the word gets around very quick
He already lost my business.

That is unacceptable. I'm glad you have cut off your relationship with that shop - they don't deserve to be in the presence of your 370Z much less work on it. Hope you get everything fixed asap.

My side markers looked like that the first time I tried to paint them with the DupliColor Shadow spray paint (actually mine probably didn't even look as bad as that). I repainted them the next day, and they came out a thousand times better.

Wow, that's horrid! For a shop or person to tell you your picky is a dumb move on their part. Remember you are the customer and these are YOUR headlights so you have the right to be as picky as needed and wanted to be!

Hope you can get it fixed. I would ask for a refund and send to a real shop.

Crap Job! But you already know this. Looks like they were running out of paint. The head was clogged or something. To tell you that you’re being picky is unacceptable. Buy the looks of your avatar your Z is on shine so this to that just adds to an eye sore.
