While doing some TLC, I found out that QT broke some of my plastic clips that goes under the bumper and splash guard. Now I gotta buy a few from the dealer

Plus they broke all the plastic brackets that hold down both the power window switches from the inside of the door panel

Other than that, the car came out really nice

Your not gonna hassle them on it? The plastic bumper clips are pretty easy to break.
Lowes has clips that are close to ours, try those. If not, then I would buy some on ebay or have the dealer price match curry acura. I never pay full price at the dealer anymore for parts.

Whenever I see that, it makes me think that the person working on my car didnt treat it with too much respect. No one treats your car as good as yourself.

I dont mind the plastic clips, I can always replace them. But its the brackets that hold down the power window switch on both side that piss me off! I though about what you said Gary and hussle their asses! But I said fuk it! If I took it back, they probably gonna fuk it up more. Plus the switches aint poppin out or jiggling loose.

And its true that no one other than yourself will take good care of your car.

I ask if the guy can include my lip kit with the paint job, he said he'll have to charge me extra for the lip. So I said nah, I'm already broke, just paint the front. Whenever I can save more I'll paint the lip.

Yea its a clean ass paint job. Kevin, you have more experience with them but this is my first time. I'll still say they did a clean ass work! I always love the front of the 02-03 TL but I wanted a 2 door. Now I can have a little of both

dropped by qt today, car still isn't ready, will probably be ready by monday. While I was there, another guy dropped in to complain about his car taking too long. lol Qt is a cool shop and quality work but damn they take a long time.

Kevin, I think there are more people working there. I see like two other OG's in there all the time.

i did get my car back yesterday, the bumper and lip looks great but the color is off by a lot, it's a lot lighter than the rest of my car. :/. I'm not sure if it's my car's red paint or they didn't do a good job paint matching. I might have Qt do a full repaint soon.

well your car is 9-10 years old with normal paint job right? so for those 9-10 years your car has been sitting in the sun various car washes ETC ETC.

thats why it sucks just to get a piece painted because it makes the car look off esp if its an older car.
