Bit of an update:

It finally stopped raining long enough for me to go out and inspect my truck. What I've found is less than acceptable workmanship.

Firstly, the hood won't open! I wanted to get to the back of my headlight today and I couldn't get to the safety latch to open it. When I finally managed to squeeze my fingers through the gap and touch to latch, it wouldn't budge.

Secondly, scratches on the bumper cover that obviously show they were trying to force the hood up. This shows that they knew of the problem before they gave it back to me!

Thirdly, they didn't repaint my grille after they said they did and billed me for it. There is still a huge scuff going across a few of the bars. I'm guessing they only painted one or two bars with deep chips and called it a day!

Well I'm sure as shit taking it back there Monday and having them do a proper job this time. And a warning to all, do not use Abra for any of your body problems.


I can't stand someone doing something half ass like that:fume:

I agree with you. If the job is not right, make them do it right. After all you paid them for a job well done.

Another update:

Dropped it off by the shop to give them another stab at it. I pointed every single thing out and the guy used a dry erase marker to circle and mark everything. It should be perfect tomorrow when I pick it up, hopefully.

They also gave me a rental car, but it turned out to be a Chrysler Town & Country. My self esteem went straight down when they said that was mine. :lol:
