This guy has been ******* you hard for a couple months now. I would put a stock rear hatch on it and finish it somewhere else. Get as much of your money back as possible. The car is hacked.

I looked over your other thread. You brought him the car 99% done all he has done is ruin your car further. Keep all your documentation, pull your car out of this clowns shop, and lawyer up.

Get it out of there then get it media blasted to get all the crap off. That way you start fresh rather than trying to figure out what sort or crap he was using.

If he has 20 years experience he must not have been wearing a resperator. dain bramaged.

Good luck.

something definitely went wrong in the paint mixing room.what was the painter smoking?and why use flexible primer on the whole car.it designed for FLEXIBLE pieces.plastic,pieces,bumper etc..
just get your car out of there and take it somewhere where they know what the hell they're doing.this is bullshit.if you lived closer i would've love to bring tht car back to life for you.

What are those rusty colored spots underneath the black? Looks like a really bad compatability issue. What kind of paint is the black? waterbourne?

Man, get that car out of there. This "painter" doesn't know what he's doing, the bondo is "not holding"? Why is he putting that much body filler in those spots any ways? On that one side it looks like he went brain dead, looks to me like WAY too much reducer was used or that side was covered with dust from sanding. Don't let him take you for stupid he SCREWED UP, BAD and needs to own up to it.

I could do a better paint job than that and I never painted a car before. Take your car to someone that knows what they are doing!!!!!
