You have set a standard for professionalism and good photo documentation with this thread and I commend you. When I try and put myself in your shoes I immediately realize that I would be incensed by knowing that someone I entrusted my car to decided to use it for their own uses and take it to a show or drive it around. This fact is a HUGE break in the client and service provider unwritten code. It is a code that is one of respect and consideration that a reputable service provider should always adhere to. Without exception.
It is understandable to test drive a vehicle after mechanical work has been performed and is expected. This is done by many shops as a road test. What we see here is a personal use of your car for no other purpose then to "pose" and solicit attention.
You have well documented what has transpired during this trade of services for money and I am extremely disappointed in the workmanship as are many here that can see first hand the "caliber" of work performed.
In the autobody business there are many "hacks" and is frought with shady shops that cut corners and find ways to undermine what should be a very straightforward process.
I am most surprised by the fact that Vlad allowed for the vehicle to leave in this condition !!! He had to be able to think ahead and realize that at some point in the not too distant future the workmanship would be made public and all of the glaring errors and inconsistiency. Jesus! Thats just cutting your own throat to allow this out the door!
I am empathetic to your situation in which you TRUSTED a fellow forum member that has an autobody shop to take care of you and show you the respect and attention to detail that we all would expect from someone that we entrusted our pride and joy to as well as our hard earned money.
Its a painful lesson - no doubt and I want to reassure you that it is not in vain as you will save many forum members from suffering the very same experience!
I wish you positive thoughts and luck with your quest for an ultra pristine example of what you know and love - the e30 M3!
Adapt and Overcome!

I mean, $6000 for a butchered job done by a blind man is one thing
but blatantly disrespecting a customer's car by driving it without permission to an auto show?
God damn, you're not 12 years old where you can be excused for driving daddy's Camry.
Also, the excuse for the electrical tape according to vlad on S14.net?
I just used electric tape few minutes before the sigfest to dress it up a little.
I'm sorry but not even rusty hooded stancework guys would put electrical tape on their car, never mind an E30 M3?!Originally posted by TSI♫ Rust flecks are falling on my head...♫OEM+
