Issue is too late to be resolved as the entire point was to fight the $1.7k bill at the dealership... I don't know what's to happen there, they can still talk and possibly see if the money can be refunded..?

I don't usually mind the trolling if it's obvious that it's sarcastic comments, but this isn't exactly the best thread/time/place or whatever to post comments like that unless you actually mean it. Especially if it's trying to call me out to be a scammer.

If its not obvious, you are as stupid as OP. You are a scammer. You admitted in chat you dont really know fuck all about working on cars, then proceeded to charge OP 800/1100 dollars to do shit to his car. WHERE IS THE NOT A SCAMMER PART.

For future reference and for whatever it means: Limitless has asked not only that this thread not be thrown to FC, but that it also not be deep sixed. This thread will not be going to FC and will be an excellent lesson learned for everyone all around.

Im not deep sixing anything. Limitless said what I just said in chat. Anyone that has been in chat for the last half hour can confirm that. If you dont know anything about working on cars where the fuck do you get off way over charging gullible people for working on their car?

Had a long day of bullshit so yes I have trouble telling if you're trolling or not right now.

I don't know much about cars no. I've done all of the work on my own car myself though, minus coils and swaybars from earlier, so I do know something. I also know about everything I did to the guys TL. I did painted my own headlights and swapped out my projector lens, and Eric helped me do the LED devil eye thing on my headlight before we did the TL. I did many PnP HID swaps before, and switchbacks were simply LED's. The rest, Eric has done many times. No I don't know much about cars, but you don't need to know much to do the basic stuff we did to the TL. It's just time consuming is all.

Then why don't you stand behind your work if you are so well versed in it.

For reference, when I say 'deep six' I mean delete the thread completely. I am not referring to posts within.

I am, what is he trying to get back? The headlight has been fine after sealing and the HID bulb I said I would swap out for him for free even though the bulb itself burning out was out of my control. The 4 missing clips in total for the fender liner, though it doesn't affect it, I said I would replace if he wants it. No big deal it's a few clips. He didn't have anything to say to me on the phone other than sorry for the thread because he's not used to forums or something and he didn't know he was calling me out personally or something. I don't know what else to say

lol this reminds me of myself couple years back actually. I did some ricer mods to my old sonata, such as led's and black housed headlights. Thought it was simple, didn't know shit about wiring just like limitless.

And then, i got my s2k and did the same thing. I felt a bit more confident, started doing closer friends cars and somehow fucked them up lol.

Only difference is i didn't provide the service to a random guy, nor charged any money. But i am glad i fucked it up, because if i didn't, i probably would have been in the same shoes as limitless

If you stood behind it this thread wouldnt be here and we wouldnt be chit chatting via forum. It took you being publicly called out to do anything. Real stand up.

C'mon, Ice. You know better than this.

I believe the OP when he said that this thread was never intended to be a witch hunt and instead was just a generalized warning for those members who aren't comfortable working on their own car. It may have gotten out of control for a while but the OP and Limitless are actually working together to get it all figured out.

If you have anything deconstructive to say, leave it to PM or start a thread in FC.

Compared to this clusterfuck, I hit a goldmine when I entrusted someone who PM'd me to do Morimoto retrofit bi-xenons on my former 8th gen Civic Si. No condensation at any point, reasonable timeframe, fast friendly email and text responses, VERY reasonable pricing.

Not going to take the chance again with my GTI, gonna be all RPI Equipped this time for any mods. =P

Sigh, headlight as of the last time we sealed it is fine. Alcohol rub was something that should not have happened but we fixed it.

We already agreed before the thread that the HID would be fixed, even though it was not my fault that the bulb burnt out. The clips I was never told about, but you think that it takes an entire thread calling me out for me to replace 4 clips that are a few cents each?

I don't know the guy, I'm not going to go spend hours and hours of work for a 12 pack of beer. He asked me how much I would charge if I were to do this for him, I told him a price. Simple as that... And where have I not stood by my work... His headlight got fucked up because of a stupid mistake and we fixed it, spent another few hours taking it apart and repainting it. His hid bulb burnt out and I offered to do the labor part for free to swap it. What am I missing, please enlighten me

I hate to break it to everyone, but the people bitching about the price are retarded, he stated a price, the customer agreed on said price, and he (arguably) provided service for said price. The fact that the OP may of over payed (he did) for this is honestly irrelevant...
