Matt H Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Clearly Unless they have experience with full sprays and not just 'blow overs' and have experience in fully removing all exterior trim and windows it WILL look obvious have to disagree there rob, i understand what your saying, but the finish on my supra was spot on and i dont think they removed the trim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Full colour changes will look obvious unless all windows and trim is removed by a competent bodyshop.Which body shop did your colour change Rob? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobSheffield Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Are you saying that yours looks gash then? Point out to me anywhere in this thread that i said mine was perfect. Whats your point Jake? Oh no, sorry, you just fancied making a snidey point, no surprise there. I took the time to remove trim, i can see the errors in the paint as well as anyone, but at the same time i dont profess to be an expert, and i didnt charge myself a fortune for doing it. My point was that most bodyshops, with the exception i believe of GVN wont go to those extra lengths. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Agree with Rob, you need to remove trims, anyone with any bodywork experience can spot it a mile off. P.S please dont paint it in that stupid flip paint you suggested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p111ddy Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Im really not a fan of the flip paint on a supra tbh but each to there own & all that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Point out to me anywhere in this thread that i said mine was perfect. I never said you did. You did say that unless a competent body shop does it it won't be any good - yet you and your dad did yours at your house and yours apparently looks alright, so it must be possible. Whats your point Jake? Oh no, sorry, you just fancied making a snidey point, no surprise there. . I wasn't getting personal with you but I'm quite happy to if you want.

How many bodyshops work on a 4 month turnaround to make sure its all right? I wasn't getting personal with you but I'm quite happy to if you want. Yes you were getting personal and you know it, in the 'sarcastic' yet snidey clever little posts you always make.
