That is all pretty horrible. I hate getting anything done to my car for fear of crap like this.
I'm a waxer LoL so I don't like the lip you get with vinyl. If you look at my 1st post I explained how I had it done to my Mustang GT without issue... anyway, I've got a Pro working on it now so I'm confident it'll be fixed but the cost!

[QUOTE=katrinacop;9726791]Guys. In my quest for a unique SS and after much discussion with the painter and his manager (at Belt Line Auto Body on Beltline Road in Irving TX) It trusted a bunch of AMATURES with my car.

The pics attached are from the 2nd time they painted it.. or the Re-Paint. Most who know me would say I'm a tough guy but the first time I saw the car all jacked up by these fools I wanted to cry, my only thought was "I ruined a $50,000.00 car"

Avoid this place at all costs. There's still not one thing symmetrical (?), not one straight line or line that's the same width. FML

UPDATE


L Custom Paint & Body Shop in Fort Worth came through big time. Nightmare OVER!
