This is my third experience with a paint shop. My first complete paint job. This is typical to me. Everyone wants to promise the moon but do as little as possible to collect a check. If you come back with a list of 10 defects they will usually do a few and hope those help you over look the rest. If that doesn't do it then they wear you out by either inconveniencing you or making it financially difficult by having you drop it off over and over or using a rental etc... If that doesn't do it your only recourse is to sue and that's a pain in the ass too.
By the time all said and done everyone will say, you could have bought a new car with that much money. But they don't make rangers anymore. At least not yet.
This was the closest I could get to getting a new one and I think it's gonna be alright. If it was too nice I'd be scared to drive it, right? Lol. I think I'm too picky a lot of the time. I'm pretty sure most of you would love this paint job and be quite happy. I just expect perfection because that's what I try to deliver in my trade. I'm always trying to make it better than the last time.
I still have to get a few misc pieces to pick up from the paint shop. Maybe I'll just post the link to my paint journal here in a yelp review after I've finished up all my dealings and am certain I won't need to see them again.
