Marty: Right on THanks man. I would have posted earlier but I worried somebody was gonna say I'm a retard for saying JPG does bad work even tho they did mess up my car and back my car right into a wall.



AND DAMN... set your friend's trunk on fire! Did they pay for the damages?

they werent going to...until I along with some other co-workers saw the damage...called up JPG and gave them hell...my friend needed a whole new trunk interior (floor carpet, carpeting that went along the inner walls etc.) My shop (city auto parts) used to send customers to them until they did that crap...shady individuals!

set trunk on fire and not tell the customer...I wouldnt get anything from them!

I would not recomend Mantis either. Ernie is an oaky guy but is to used to dealing with rick Oakville guys doing uo thier Porsche's and Beemers. Also, I had a catback built by them a few years ago. What they actually did was measure the piping wrong and rather that fix that, they just got rid of my cat convertor. I didn't even know until I got a ticket for it. Brutal.

As a note. exhaust piping should NEVER EVER EVER EVER be welded ON THE CAR!! tacked *maybe*, then taken down and welded. The heat from the welded burns off the paint and undercoating and the car rusts right out. Obviously if they set someone's trunk on fire, they were welding on the car

Oh... now you tell me.. cuz they were welding it under my car... they had the exhaust lifter things (look like those IV things those patients walk around with in hospitals.. but except for holding exhaust piping) and they were using that to help them weld the exhaust on.
