DONT GO HERE, YOU WILL GET SCAMMED
I took my car here to get two of my doors replaced and painted. I was originally quoted $1,300 and was told it would be done in 2 weeks. At the 4th week or so, they called and informed that if I wanted them to paint my car I'd have to pay another $500 because they "didn't have enough of the right paint, and they'd have to go buy it." They somehow "weren't aware of this" throughout the entire 4 weeks I was messaging them for updates. Instead, they "became aware" the night they called me.
They would have known this from the very beginning, and the very least, to know before the evening they wanted me to make a decision. Most definitely before they covered both of the doors in primer. It was a complete scam.
When they called me, they wanted me to on the spot, choose from one of these three choices-
1) have them paint my car doors for another $500 (I told him originally that the first quoted price of $1,600 was way too much for me, so I was extra upset that this would now make it $1,800)
2) let me take my car home with the two doors covered in primer. I called other shops to see if someone else would be able to paint it instead, since I was upset that they scammed me, but they were either closed, didn't do auto body painting, or were too busy and I'd need to wait to take it in.
3) they'd spray paint it black for me with regular spray paint can.
I was put in a difficult position. They said if I don't have them paint it for the extra money, they will charge me every day my car was there starting on Monday (I work all day Monday). When I expressed being upset about all of this, they were immediately defensive and started saying they weren't gonna do anything else for me, and that I simply needed to pick up my car as is. I tried to diffuse the situation, and ended up giving him the OK to paint it for the extra money.
The paint job was terrible. It's super uneven, cracked, and splotchy. They also got paint on other areas of my car, including on the inside of it and near a tire. I've attached photos below.
Im super upset. I was scammed. I paid $500 more than what was quoted, they had it for 3 weeks longer than what they told me (5 weeks total), and they did a terrible job. I could have taken it somewhere else for close to what I ended up paying here, for a much better paint job.
It's unfortunate because I try to see the best in people and I initially liked Ruben. It's hard to want to say something negative about him or his business, but this is all just straight facts and people need to know so they don't experience the same.
I'm very sad, upset, and now broke. read more
