This is why you do your own work and not take your car to 3rd party shops... well at least ones you don't normally do work with.
1 broken bolt and 2 stripped ones.
^ Blurry picture, but that is the clip that holds the window in place. Needless to say broken.
Which causes this to happen:
Needless to say new some new clips are on order along with some new bolts.
I feel your pain. My clutch master cylinder rod broke around the corner from a shop that worked mostly on VW's so I let them handle it. A few months later the brake fluid light came on but I could not find any leaks at the calipers. Come to find out, my carpet was soaked in brake fluid. The elbow had a crack in it and leaked fluid on to carpet. Apparently, they damaged it (probably used pliers to snap it in and out) when they transferred it onto the new master cylinder. In the process of doing that, the tech also damaged the stitching on my drivers seat right on the corner. For those that not familiar with this job...you rub right on that corner when you are down there working. This time around I removed everything from the car (including seat) to install the new elbow by hand. The one time I let an unknown shop work on my car and this shit happens.
Car was broken into to steal my god damn radio.... fuck!!! WORST PARKING SPOT EVER!
Luckily, only my radio and random things like lighter and my crack pipe and old cigarettes were stolen.
But the asshole/s fucked my door/window moulding and scratched my recent paint job.
Now, Is this door moulding piece something I can replace? or can I repair this piece? If so anybody got these spare parts for sale? how about the glass? its a late model coupe Power windows. (PS see photo below) The circled part is where that corner is pulled back.
I have what you need. I have two complete doors I have been using for parts.

Has anyone used Westside Rentals before? Not sure I want to spend the $60 to use a search engine to find a place, but it seems like they have a MUCH better selection than CL... money well spent?
