Mike B Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 Thought I was getiing a bargain, I think It's turned out to be a bit of a white elephant - Are rough aftermark spats salvageable by the workshops, ie can they bog and smooth them fairly easily - do they all look quite rough out of the mould or should they be smooth to start with, They are far from smooth and the upper edge waves quite a bit - they are far from perfect, but the guy says that his body shop wasn't fazd at all.. I'm just trying to weight up the options before these horrors go back to where they came from! any opinions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
absz Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 they should be nice and smooth with no waving edges . a good bodyshop will be able to repair them but its a cost factor. normally works out cheaper to pay more and buy quality.

terribleturner Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 Were these Ebay Items Mike?? I purchased some off Ebay that were rubbish. But as said many times before, "pay cheap, get cheap". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobSheffield Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 I am no expert, but that is some of the most piss poor glass work ever - did the guy ever hear of a mould?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Michel - You told me that I wouldn't go single and I've started shopping already!! This winter could see you hiding from your neighbour from hell that asks far too many questions (ie me)!! Hope you are well, Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
