Got the civic back

[sniperscout]

So yeah...my car must have been an orange in its past life cause now it looks like one big ass black orange. There is tons of orange peel on it. I already talked to the owner of the shop and is going back to be fixed. The paint on my hood was burned from the buffer...tried to get pics but i am not blessed with a good camera. It already has door dings from the shop too!
The one thing that they did that i do like is they put extra blue flake into the paint so you can see a lot more blue in it than from the factory.

wow thats a quality paint job....I try to tell people you get what you pay for...

[sniperscout]

you have no idea what i paid for it so how are you gonna say that

if i didnt pay very much for it i would expect this kind of thing...I didnt go to some fly by night paint shop

[The God Damn Batman]

lol i say you "snipe" him. do you mind saying where you got it done at man?
orange peel can happen, just sucks you gotta deal with thathassle.

[sniperscout]

no i am not gonna say where i got it done(although I have posted where before)...i know the owner personally but he was out of town when my car was there. I kind of rushed them so it is partially my fault but I would rather have them tell me that it wont be done than to have me deal with this now.

[sniperscout]

it will be made right though...i have no doubts on that

[4dr_ed3]

i bet you miss your car huh!!??

[sniperscout]

maybe a little...i was driving the porsche around so it was kinda nice not havin the civic

that was one very positive thing about this whole incident..it forced me to add insurance on the porsche and it dropped my insurance from $137 to $100 a month...and yes i do have geico lol!

did you use the oem mounting hardware or did you make your own?

[LS-S DA9]

I came with hardware

[sniperscout]

yeah i ended up crimping those clips that have the mounting tape on them so the skirts wouldnt have a gap. before i did that the gap was huge
