Scroll down for the pictures. They will make you cringe.

The lesson to do your own bodywork? Or to check up on the shop beforehand?

Though really, the 350 is an already a gorgeous car and if I had one I doubt I'd do too many bodywork modifications.

Lesson learned in that if someone quotes you $250 for a job like that, get the fuck out of there. That's not a small job in any sense

Huh, must have skimmed the price of it. Rereading apparently he paid another $500 for mods he didn't ask for as well. What the hell?
