Don't trip my friend. Your welds are fine. I've had mine hold up perfectly for the past 2 years they've been welded into place, and you know as well as I that I've put them through the motions. Ex: I was 4th back out of 80+ cars and started from about 30 back, during the Invasion cruz this year and hung with the Vette in front of me just fine. And I check my under body routinely at least twice a month. Everything is still intact.
For quick and willing service, on a short notice appointment basis that shop is a place I'll continue to go to. He's been in business for countless years. Shops with bad reps don't stay up. And for the cost and speed of his work I'm happy with him or I would have never taken you there.
To each his own for opinions, but I'll trust my car and what it withstands in the twisties and canyons more than I will 2nd hand criticism. Remember that bro, before you openly put yourself or your car onto the Tech Thread "chopping block."

Let's see you do better for $40... I sure ain't paying Dyno Don $100 and waiting 6 months on his guest list.
If you want to, you can pay me $400 and I can have my master fabricator buddy reweld in the subframe connectors across the entire length with perfect nickel-shaped welds. If you want concourse quality you have to pay for concourse quality.
I doubt enough force is exerted on those welds to break them anyways (especially with them bolted in). If there is ever that much force, it'd only be in a major accident situation in which case one of the last things I'm worrying about is my subframe connector welds remaining intact...

If he painted them a different color they'd look fine to me. I'm sure they rotate efficiently enough for Adam.
You can wait for something to happen your whole life. I'm still waiting on that V8 swap.
Mike, I hope you get your SFCs installed before your car turns into a CA approved antique automobile.
It's time to get some sleep.
