QUALITY GRAPHICS JOB...

[chicowot]

Decided to get my Clubbie graphics refurbished. They were beginning to show signs of wear and tear.
So I looked around and made the decision to keep the job within the MINI family and went to the company named in the title.
My Clubbie went in looking like this--

It came back looking like this.
You can come to your own conclusions but you can guess what mine was and any future recommendations.
Have done as slide show but understand if you cannot stomach to watch it all.

Exactly what I was thinking...!!!

[Zaxxon]

That is just shocking.

I am amazed that any company could try to pass that off as a finished job.

[Nickyboy]

I could understand a few small bubbles maybe but how could anyone think that is a good job?????????

I trust no money has changed hands, thats shocking, Looks like the YTS trainee did it in 10 mins

I'm hoping that all except the last picture are of the car pre-refurbish.

Bloody hell!
I cannot believe they thought that would be acceptable and let you see it. No parallel lines to be seen, and the care taken on the cuts (Mini badge on the bonnet for example) is amateur to say the least.
Shoddy, poor, unacceptable level of work there.
Are they a new business? I assume they are aware how (un)happy you are with it.

Come on OP, finish the story!

Are you going to post on here?

fk me that is terrible. I can't believe anyone would think that is an acceptable finish.

[Dav3yboy]

That is shocking, please post on that forum section.

That is epically poor fitting. Having been in the business over 6 years that is up there with the worst fitting I have seen. Unfortunately I would expect the paintwork to also of been cut to buggery when it is removed as it is clear little care has been taking regarding the fitting the same can properly be said for use of sharp blades carefully.

And I was going through those photos and wondering - when the AFTER shots will start

[egomeister]

Wow! I hope the paintwork isn't ruined underneath all that...

Ah, so that's what my 3yr old niece does at playschool.

2 of my friends run graphics and decal installation companies and they would never in a million years let a car leave looking like that even on a saturday morning after 20 pints the night before!!

That is biblically bad. Worse than every amateur job I've seen.

Personally, I would refuse to pay, AND make them remove all their 'work' for free so I could go go somewhere else and have it done.
