My bodywork was supposed to have been finished yesterday after only 7wks!!!!!!!!
Mike said he will have it finished very soon and it will be £650, to which my reply was f-=koff mike, he said well you had a quote of £940, to which i replied, yes i did but that was for a 10 day turn around, inc VAT, they repair my seat unit and side panels, and shot blasted the wheels!!
You are not paying VAT, i had the wheels shot blasted for you and i repaired my seat and panels for you and you have taken 2months.
Am i out of order!!!!!!

Sound like your being very very reasonable - I haven't used a paintshop that is reliable yet. They say a couple of weeks and what they really mean is 6 months - same with the price.
Quote? I don't know why they bother sometimes ...
Grrrrrrrrrrr Yep got the Tshirt

My pal did my fairing for £100 and it took less than a week.Top job as well,only thing was,i gave him the front mudguard to match the colour and it had been repaired and sprayed slightly differant,so my fault really.
I dont think your out of order,half price is about right for me,especially if there doing it in works time and getting "paid"for it.

Just picked up my wheels after painting and i must admit they look Great,
Going to fit my new wheel bearings and hub oil seals at the weekend, then have my tyres fitted and wait for the tyre guy to scratch my new paint cos you know it will happen!!
