I hope he took the photos back to the original shop and got his money back.

ehh i dunno about that. i know the owner of that shop, i called him up & talked about the job he did lol. his response was something along the lines of "he got a $250 detail" then he told me he knows how to detail. he went on to tell me about the ceramic hard clear & i told him thats FALSE. i dont know why nissan put that sticker under the hood. im sure the other guy will see it when i post it on the forums. that guys a real winner i tell ya.

The point is he told the customer he could do the same job for less. He did a bait and switch.

The guy said andrew will charge you too much but i can do the job for $250. really?

His response was something along the lines of "he got a $250 detail" then he told me he knows how to detail.

Not sure I would agree about getting a "$250 detail". But regardless, the customer wanted a ~$600(?) detail and the guy said he could do it for $250. I'm sure when the customer bought the GTR he would have been happy to hear they would sell it to him for the price of a Maxima, but I doubt he would have accepted the Maxima when he was told he was buying a GTR.

Once again, though, customers who want quality need to realize that it comes at a price. Don't shop at a Kia dealership when you want a Mercedes.

A few more gems I found. I just don't get it. The cars still look like crap. I guess the holograms are what they are after. "Look at the pretty glimmer"

 

[AndrewBigA]

some people actually think holograms are supposed to be there lol. just brings me back memories of my time at the body shop. compound with wool, polish with foam & then slap on some 3M hand glaze lol.

i always think it's a good idea to have your eyes open while detailing. apparently some do not !
