Mr Coupe.. i think i saw you yesterday... somewhere on my way back to LI from manhattan.. you were going the other way... if it was you, i couldnt see the bottom half of car bc of divider..

sounds like the paint didnt have any flex agent stuff mixed in....

[kyle@stillen]

It's going to be one or more of the following three things.

1) They did not properly clean the part and prepare it for paint.

2) They did not use a flex agent in the paint.

3) (most likely) They did not use primer...This is the most common occurence. Painters think they can use an "adhesion promoter." This stuff is complete crap and does not work!!! We have been making urethane for 22 years and we know how to properly paint it...It requires primer! NOT "ADHESION PROMOTER."

It is towards the bottom but it should help your painters.

Yup, mines holding up fine, after 6 months and 8,000 miles, with all the right painting procedures. Make them do it right bro!

Arent you saying its chipping now with the macco paint job? Or are you saying I took it to Macco?

[gucio69]

Hes saying he took it to Macco the first time he got the fascia and they did it right. After his accident he took his 2nd fascia to another shop and they f'd up.
