I know it's a joke Michael and I was on his back all the time, the prick. No mates rates either. Paid top money. I am really happy with the job he done. I couln't have been too hard on him or he might have stuffed it up. I would recommend him for his workmanship, but definately not for his speed. He's pretty good at slinging the bull**** around too.

Geez Baz - Id hate to hear the whinging if you could "imagine that it could look any better". Id be over the moon to be that pleased with the job (as I assume you are with everyone who has done the work on your car), even if it did take 12 weeks (in the scope of a build project that isnt that long) and less inclined to call him a "prick" in a public forum (and whinge further about not getting "mates rates").

Cheers

Don't get me wrong Tenrocca. I'm wrapped in the finished paint job. I'm not whinging about the quality of his work. Just the lies he fed me every week for 12 weeks. E.G. Rang him 4 weeks after car put into his workshop. He told me that it had been blocked up, sanded and ready for undercoat. Paid him a surprise visit shortly after and discovered that the car hadn't been touched. It was in exactly the same condition as when I dropped it there a month earlier. This is just one example and there were many more instances where he told me blatant lies. This is why I wouldn't recommend him to anyone. All I required of him was the truth. That's not too much to ask. My trimmer has been up front with me and that's how I like it. He has told me that seeing that the painter had the car for so long, I had missed the date that he had booked my car in. The trimmer told me that he had two show rods to be completely trimmed and were required for a Car Show before the end of June. They were going to be done before my car. He couldn't start my job until 6th July and it would take about 2 weeks to complete. I know where I stand with him. That's how I like to do business. I couln't say the same about the painter.

As far as mates rates are concerned, this was raised by Michael (Tabey25) and I was merely responding to his question.

Thanks Pete,

Those wheels are all I could afford after paying for the paint job..... Just Joking.
Unfortunately, you won't see the car at brekky this Sunday, but you'll get the next best thing... ME.



These are the real wheels........
