^290 dollars ?!!!? Suck a dick! Mercedes tax.

Get one of those small portable airbrushes on Amazon, they will work perfectly for small models.

Did someone say XRS Corolla?

There's a silver one in rougher shape for sale atm as well.

Update:
Around the time I made this thread, I decided to accept things and DIY buff out the scratches to save a trip back to the shop.

All was gravy until I took off my plate bracket and realized primer was flashing through with a noticeable section of the trunk lighter than the rest. Took it back to the shop to show them and they booked me in this month to re-do.

Picked up the car today and trunk looks acceptable but when I brought it home, I realized the M3 badge is crooked. Easy enough DIY fix, but sloppy work by the shop. Also noticed what looks like either polish residue or someone shirtless was leaning against the car and I guess they had something in their pocket because now there are a bunch of new scuffs near the fender vent. Polish residue doesn't really make sense because if they were trying to hide damages, you'd think they'd do a better job of it.

Speaking of scratches, it's pretty clear that the shop washed the car with a dirty brush because there are hairline scratches all over the newly painted trunk.

Overall, a less than stellar experience, and a reminder that I should've just waited to get an appointment at another closer shop that seems to have a constant 2 month waitlist.

:fuuuuu:

It looks even worse compared to what was originally posted

Can forgive the first time, wasn’t that bad but if something goes in a second time it’s like what are we doing here guys? Where’s the pride in work? You’d think a repeat job would have a managers hands and eyes all over it but just more fuckaround, they obviously got too much juicy biz from icbc claims and don’t care about any lower paying side jobs.

Name them so i never go there.

Pretty much this 100%. I dealt with the owner direct too. Cool guy with a nice car collection but he needs to run a tighter ship. Would not recommend. One of the many indy honger shops along Bridgeport.

I’m very glad this wasn’t the shop I’ve been recommending in Richmond. If you need your shit fixed go talk to tru line.

This would never be truline LOL. Jing you have my number, I can also fwd the contact for Truline if desired.

Ya name and shame! Gotta know where not to go to!

Name drop please?

I didn’t think so, but first instance could have been anyone. Shit happens unnoticed and it’s all good, just gotta tell someone and give them a chance to fix it, but second go being worse is fuckin wild.

All I'll say online is that they were recommended in the Axon chat that I know a few of you here are in.
