I've said that forever, and i hate to bash a business or a sponsor, and i am not trying to do that or imply that...but I mean people have to do some comparing on the market...i mean we know that anyone can call Mckinney, and get a rate...then they come to the boards saying "thats rediculous! I can get a swap at 'XXplace' for 1/3 of that!!!!"....and i have ALWAYS said...look at what you get from mckinney, and look at what you get at 'XXplace'...then people always trying to save a buck. I mean I know a lot of people doing these swaps are teenagers or college kids...but any respectable person who is looking for quality and has a decent income will always say 'im more willing to pay for good work, then have a discount price and get not the same quality'...im always weary of low prices, or lower than market value...
I am one that would pay 3x's for someone like mckinney to do work on my car, than have a new shop, with owners w/out the same experience, and mechanics w/out the knowledge and years in the business and motor.
I do feel for your friend...and everyone learns from their mistakes, and i cant knock someone for that, but this always seems to be what happens, and im sure you've heard this before, but you pay less to get something done...then u end up paying more fixing the mistakes than u would have to do it right the first time.
I'm sorry your friend got screwed, but i cant put full blame on the shop.
I'd help, but i dont know much about the RB s'
i payed a lot to have my Sr installed...a lot more than a lot of people...but i got it done by someone i really trusted, wasnt overcharging me, and someone i can bring the car back to whenever i have any problem and they look at it for free, and will correct the problem, only charging me for part if neccesary..i didnt expect a deal, and payed him for all the hours he put into it, but piece of mind was worth the money to me
