alberts316 Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 Well bought my first door panel and hopefully the last. Customer brought in 07 4runner wanted to hang out while I did two fronts. No prob do it all the time right...Wrong. while dude is talking to me he says look at this. when I look at the other window I just did there is a finger at the bottom, when I turn back around I hit the door panel with my triumph blade putting a 1/2 " nick in it. Well needless to say customer notices it and says what can you do about it. Well 370 bucks later (even with bodyshop discount) I had to put on a new door panel cuz nobody around me will fix the leather on the door panel. Lesson Learned. NO CUSTOMERS IN THE BAY!!!!!!! also sh_t happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

running free Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 Cheers to that! Sometimes they will snake, I ask them to leave the tint bay can't stand it when they watch and ask *those* questions. I tell them that I do a way better job without any distractions and it's true. There is nothing for them to see anly the finished product! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

big money Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 That sucks azz, but thats why I like taking panels off and move them out of the way I use to triumph on those r&r's on some cars that aren't too curvy, but not on a new job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
