LOL. Good homework and fact finding.
Always pays to do some research before you actually book the car in.

they do make some good cars that u see at shows tho . . .
but they must spend real time and hard work on them, it sounds like they dont bother that much with "normal" cars

they'll rush it, make a shit job, and charge twice the price.

I have to disagree with that mate. There kit quality is the same as anywhere else you go. My mate got his car done there and it was spot on

I've got the front bumper and I've had to rework 3 of their full kits to be put onto other cars - and they're appaling!
The fibreglass content is inconsistant, there are too many voids, the finish is appaling; the mould is appaling, the front for mine was 6" too wide - I had to cut a fuck load off to fit it

best pic I have to highlight the problem with them; the top doesnt lien up with the head lamps; its about an inch out at teh extremities; the sides dont line up with the wings
in general they're appaling; Ive never seen such shoddy fibreglassing - the whoel technique of chopper gun spraying is flawed; it isnt a consistant thickness
