why me??? argh....
So I'm finally getting to put the first coat of primer on my car...got the doors/hood/trunk/ all prepped and cleaned and ready to go in the booth...pop open my can of primer, and its like thick mud the bottom 1/4 of the can...try mixing it, and finally take it to a paint shop to shake/mix, and sure enough its screwed cause its been sitting too long
 So needless to say now I'll be set back at least another 3 days...My total order from this place came out to around $500, and they also sent me the wrong color (silver instead of blue??) ARGH why is it nothing goes right when you want something done?? I mean, the difficult part is supposed to be in doing the body work and prep....not in ordering paint??????? |

no kidding...unfortunately this is my first time doing the bodywork ona vehicle, so i just had my teacher order the paint for me, from his supplier (better deal) but I've learned now, I may as well pay a bit more and actually get what I order and get it myself....oh well, live and learn....

I"d rather go to the dentist than any of the body shop suppliers around here!
They just look at you with that- "yea, WTF do you want look"

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
