I understand that you don't read everything here because who the hell has time to in a thread with posts this long. I did not charge $1100 for the headlight, it was $800 for the headlight painting, hids, switchbacks, leds, all the parts and labor. The extra $350 or so came from after, where he wanted some car trims to be colormatched at a bodyshop and I just set up the deal for him. Earned NOTHING bringing his stuff to get painted. You think we ripped him off while laughing? The amount of time we spent compared to the amount of money we received, it wasn't even $5 an hour.
Sigh I can't even say it enough times. Work that was done was fine... The issue with it on his side is that his bumper tab was broken (which was broken previously) and his clips are missing, which is my fault but an easy fix. Headlight wasn't condensating after the last time we sealed it, but the air conditioning got fucked up and was somehow linked to the wiring when it shouldn't have been. Dealership owned him with the 1.7k bill and it was paid.
I don't know how to put this any other way. TL;DR?
Work done for money
-Headlight painting
-LED strip on the shroud
-HID pnp kit for the foglights
-switchback leds for the turn signals
-If you include it for the $1100, front grill and rear trunk trim was colormatched to the car at a bodyshop
AC was fucked up a few weeks after the final wiring for the headlights were done, I don't know what the hell happened with the circuits or whatever because I have no idea about that part. Supposed to have nothing to do with headlights. Dealership fucked him over with $1.7k charge.
Exactly what the fuck did I do wrong other than what I have apologized for?
