yes, i can understand where you're comming from, i've had problems earlier this year with a bodyshop up in manchester, the quarters panels not the right colour, not blended in, the tail gate not sprayed - it was aerosoled!!!! the paint work on the bumper flaked off. i had most of it re-done. it still doesnt look quite right tho

If you can't sort it and have to resort to going elsewhere.

Give us a shout, I can 'highly' reccomend a place to sort all your problems and they have been used by TOC members already including myself.

That's not good to hear, I had a bumper and rear quarter sprayed on an Escort a few years ago. Never was over happy and that was after taking it back 3 times The rear quarter had a panel welded in and resprayed and was perfect put the bumper which I thought would be easier to paint was crap. That was a place in Staffordshire, but not in Stoke.

The place I recommended on here the other day for mechanical stuff, also has a spray shop as part of it. Smithsons on King Street, Phil is the main bloke there and the painting part of the business is called Autokraft. Not sure on the quality of major work as I haven't had any done there - but they did remove a nasty rust spot for me on the celica and you would never know it was there!

You want to see the majority of 'so-called' proffesional bodyshops in Telford (most of which are 'approved' by insurance companies).

I wouldn't wish to name and shame, not because of libile action but because I would be here all day listing the Bodyshops and idiot things they have done :ffs:

When I got my car back in March I was in love and did my usual 3 days valetting, wheels off the works, engine etc.

Yeah the bodywork had the usual wera marks for a 3 year old car but I could live with that. The paintwork shined a treat.

So imagine my dismay now that every :censor: panel including the roof has :censor: cat scratches all over it. Nice white lines shining thru the blue.

I hate cats with a venom. I can live with damage from usual use wear and tear but to know during the small ours while I sleep some prats so called pet is ruinging my car......and craping in the garden to rub salt in my wounds.

I'm sorry I hate cat owners too. I mean what would they like it if I had a dog and let it crap in their garden and jump on their car? No they would not but as it is a :censor: cat it is ok!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
