[sharky]

So sorry to see this happen to such a good guy (Yan) I hope you get this straigtened out with Lawyers or other. As far as Vlad, Im sorry to see him being banned but Im sure R3v staff contemplated heavily over it. Yan if you make it to CT come by the shop and I will have some good beer waiting for you.

There is now a donation fund set up for Yan in General, the link is in my sig.

We will be producing YAN-3 stickers for sale with all proceeds going to the fund as well, details to come later.

Is legal action being taken or what? This piece of shit (vlad) needs to be put in his place

[Pinepig]

This is terrible. Those runs and drips are complete bs, I could spray a car better than that. And your headliner...the fact that he drove it without your permission...

I painted a buddy's Jetta in the garage ( in black ) for free and it looks better than that.

Hes still posting away on BFc

We're not turning this into a "Let's tear Vlad a new one" thread.

I reopened and posted this to let the community know what was being done, and get people's thoughts/opinions on the matter.

I'm sorry I just really have to get it off my chest to say I thought she looked like a transvestite.

I'll be sending a donation myself when I get to a computer. Hope the best for you Yan.

I bought a car from Vlad in September. I have to say that Yan's experience seems very representative of the quality of Vlad's work. I count my issue with Vlad as my own stupidity in not having a trusted AND knowledgeable person inspect the car prior to purchase. Lesson learned. Vlad's shop doesn't do the quality work you think they should given their experience with e30's or anywhere near the quality you would expect for the money.

I am not taking sides here but, Vlad brought up an interesting point on S14 what happened with the other 9 m3's that were in his shop while Yan's was being worked on?

According to Vlad they came out fine and the owners were happy is there any proof of this?

[M-technik-3]

He had ample time to sort the details, he dodged the questions,pushed blame else where and blamed his paying customer. This is not the first time and this has happened.

glad to see whats being done here. Had i viewed this thread earlier I would have controlled my rant in the donate thread.

excellent move by the admins

[Pudmunkie]

Glad someone else thought this too; plus the same pose/picture combo every 3 days got very old.

Thank god I'm not alone. Every picture I just kept wishing she would GTFO of the frame.

OP, I really feel for you. For what you have done for our country, you deserve much better than Vlad provided you with. In all honesty, I could have done a better job with a rattle can, provided I prepped right and buffed it good afterwards. In reality, he should be re-spraying your car for free due to the quality of the work done, and for what you have done for us overseas. I shot my 318i in my garage for about $130, with auto parts store dupli color lacquer, and it was better. There is no reason for what happened to you, and it is most likely criminal. Just to ask, have any of the members that were ripped off here reported his shop to the Better Business Bureau?

Wow, I am sorry for you Yan. A maaco paint job would have turned out better for $800. Hopefully everything works out for you.
