3 months ago i dropped my teg off to have my lude put in and this is what happen.
still waiting... in fort Collins








somebody tell me if eyes are going bad, or was there bad bodywork or just used parts.here are some pictures of the car.just look




















that's want get for having my car wrecked and miles added to it, don't even new oem parts for it, want happen to restoring it back to want the owner had on it.

now the installation was good, but the cut for the shifter cables.







one good thing was a 170 at wheels with 148 torque.

honestly....WTF are you talking about?

 

You dropped of the teg to have an H22 put in, and they crashed it?

 

yeah they wrecked it.. 23rd of Dec i dropped my car to my other motor installed and on the day i was told it would be i called to check on it and that's when i found out. the dude said he lost control of the car due to something breaking sounded fishy to me so i drove up there to check on my suspension parts to see what was broken for him to lose control of the car and nothing was broke.bent tie rod,and sway bar and broken rim. this all happen due to him going over a curb and threw a fence. police report said nothing of him racing or speeding.

total damage, radiator support bent fixable.not fixable driver rim,hood, bumper,both finders,both head lights, grill,windshield.all was replace and hole new paint job.

even a little better when i dropped my car i grabed my trusty camera phone and took a picture of the miles on my car and when i got there i looked to see what changed. ready for this there was an extra 505 miles added to my car in 9 days.

i guess the good news, i got a carbon fiber hood,a pearl clear coat,silver to the car i wanted just a little to off set the factory paint we'll see if that happen's.any dent if it was mine or there's was fixed.i also have been told they fine tune the car on the dyno.

so only time will tell if this is all done. and what suck's about this where i live no one can do engine swap's so this place is 5 hours from me, so it's hard to check on it with working in the oil field.

 

Damn, I would be insane with anger if that were my car. Hopefully it gets all fixed.

That's pretty foul...

What was the name of the shop?

 

wtf.......whats the name of the shop? Thats some shadey **** there!!!!

 

after i get my car back i will let you know, and i will post pictures of the out come of it. should be this weekend i get it back.

 

holy crap that sucks. hope they do a good job!

 

What the expletive!!!
I would be so ******* mad if a shop did that to me
When i bring my car to the body shop i allways right down the miles
and put it on the cluster so the body shop knows that im keeping track of the miles.

Is that shop paying for everything and you get everything for free or your insurence paying for the damage only?

 

they are paying for it all, I know it's cost them at least 8 g's

 

another ******* week down. someday I'll be able to show you all the results.

 

as far i know i will get the car back 2marrow

 

let us know what happened!

they didn't bolt down the shifter? The hole from the linkage is fine......

Your hood lines look like ****.

I think you should take them to court.

in the works

 

good, they deserve it.

 

i had my own shop...thats a quick fix. they didnt spend $8k to fix your car, more like $1500 only cuz of the jap front end. they should of put a new radiator support on your car for the lights to line up(your alighnment is probably off too). all in all you fuked with a dirty dick raw. takem to court and if they dont have business insurance itll come out of their pocket. take it to honda to get an estimate since theyll give you the highest estimate and get paid..estimate to fix what theyve done should be around $2k+ since they fixed most of the sheetetal.

next time drive the xtra hour or two to a known shop and save yourself the headache.car will look good again once you get in the right hands.goodluck
