B4 Wheel Upgrade

 

Beautiful Color Right Well the sh@t gets deep . I dropped the car off at paint the day after I bought it Dec 28ish . Take your time I won't be driving until the weather is good. They called me end of April " Hey your car is ready but it won't start" I was out of town when I received the call. Got back in town had car looked at it was a grounding issue least of the problems. Just had a friend of mine who is a painter look at the car in good light " Told him I wasn't happy, he wanted to see why and here is the term and phrases he used
Solvent Pop
Dirt in Paint -Deeper than clear
DA Swirls in Paint
Severe Runs
Trim Over Spray
And when sanding they hit the rear glass w/ the sander
So now that I have a list from a professional painter Guess where I am going Tomorrow.

 

So aside from all that here is the Day 1 Pic
