Because the polisher I took them to, the one snail uses and sent them to, didn't fully polish them like instructed to by snail. Somehow its my fault according to the receptionist. She says I chose the polisher and they have nothing to do with him. Why couldn't they tell me from the get go that they couldn't do it? Why did I have to constantly call and beg for an update? I just picked my wheels up which have been there with no work done for the past month, since polishing. Their communication sucks. They had nothing but excuses for everything I asked. I'm beyond pissed right now. According to the receptionist Juan was the one taking care of them. I called yesterday for an update and had to beg for one, which I did not get. Juan was not in as usual and she was supposed to get back to me by the end of the day. Didn't get called and had to call today at 1430. Juan picked up after about 9 rings and said to hold on. The bastard had the receptionist pick up the phone to answer my questions when he had all the answers. What great customer service. Man up instead of hiding behind your receptionist. Waste of time and money. Don't go to snail! This is going up in any Vegas car forum I can get in. All I got was blamed and did not get an apology. I didn't even get to speak to Juan about any of this.
WOW!

Have you paid them anything? I would take this to small claims if you had and they won't refund you. Also BBB. Also every forum. When I meet up with the Mini people (whom the owners of Snail supposedly is part of- tho I haven't met them) I will bring this horror story up. That is what this is- a horror story.

A couple shots from our trip to the in-laws in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario, Canada:


The father-in-law's Model A.

It even goes off-roading!

In the rumble seat returning from a drive.

The American Falls.

The Horseshoe Falls.

Approaching the falls in the Maid of the Mist.

Beautiful stone buildings overlooking the falls and an outdoor amphitheater.

A gazebo that Richard Gere was in for some movie. Oh and the American Fort Niagara behind us across Lake Ontario.

This is the Brock Monument. Our equivalent to George Washington.

This view is only halfway up the monument. It is a total of 285 very steep steps up to the top.

And Infamous, I don't know what to say except I wish you had a different out come. I will help to pass the word about Snail as they shouldn't treat anyone that way.

Thanks for the empathy guys. I didn't pay them a dime. This whole thing really sucks. Now I'm in talks with another shop, Garage works. I'm hoping to have a much better experience. Here's the kicker, Juan is the owner of snail motorsports.

Hey all. Not to steal this thread, but I am planning a trip to Vegas the 4th through the 7th and I was looking for suggestions on hotels, bars, activities, or anything special to do while there. I didnt have anyone to ask for these tips and was hoping the 370 forum could come through and help me out. Any input is appreciated. Thanks!

So, I may be making a weekend trip up to Vegas before the NFL season to place some more sports bets.

If I do, are there any events going on that some of us could meet up for?

Are you planning on staying on the strip?

If so, staying at a place like New York New York (or other place in the middle of the strip) is ideal, that way you have easy access to the trams and monorail or you're walking distance from many of the other hotels.

Thanks. It was a great trip. That was his dad's very first car that he restored himself as a teenager.

Being a local... I don't typically go out to clubs or the strip. And I've never stayed in a hotel at the strip so I really can't give you any recommendations. I live in my own bubble out in the southwest area of town.

Which is typical of Las Vegans.

Cars and coffee and there's a Wednesday night meet some folks go to. That's all that comes to mind. Lmk when you decide to come, so I can get that Saturday off for CC.

Ah okay. Yeah, it'd def. be a Fri-Sunday trip probably (leaving Fri after work).

I will try to plan it out here soon.

Stay in the middle of the strip of at all possible. Easy access to either side. Text this promoter for clubs or dayclubs/pools. I found him on instagram and I think he should be able to take care of you.
