Jimmy, I have talked to my close friends about my disappointment in this deal, but that's it. You continue to run your mouth saying negative things about me on FB, SSM, text message (to people who tell me all about) and in casual conversations. I will not tolerate you insulting my character on PUBLIC forums since it is not only completely unjustified, but VERY unprofessional. I literally typed up a multi page time-line of every event that occurred along with the extra $1000 cash I paid along with the 60+ hours of my own time prepping and disassembling/assembling every piece on the truck. Not to mention I had my own friends cut and buff the truck since you were running so late. The only thing I 'owe' you is hardline and some fittings which you are not going to get. What I got was:

-A truck with paint that is bubbling-Panels that don't match at all. -Severe shrink back of sand scratches. -Severe shrink back of all body work so the panels are wavy. -Paint that hasn't cured over the last 6 months! I can still leave a finger print in it or dent with my finger nail. -Black that goes 'brown' when the sun hits it. -100's of dollars worth of lost hardware and rubber. -Places where the clear was buffed through to try and get out your fisheyes.

I specifically told you I was going to bring the truck back to you after the FFF show so the bodywork had time to shrink back. Promptly after that show I contacted you and you blew me off for a month with tons of lame excuses. I know you said you were too 'intimidated' to talk to me about it, but that is only because you were going to try and hit me up for more money or product for all the 'extra' work you did. You painted my rear frame, my bumpers, and some interior pieces....those are all 'extra'. Thank you! If things would have gone smooth I would have LOVED to compensate you for that. But it didn't! I prepped them all myself, gave you $1000 OVER our original agreement (for extra material) , a Kinetik battery, 60+ hours of my OWN time, 2 days lost wages at my work, and had my friends cut and buff the truck. So I feel that you have been more than compensated!

I had concerns about your ability to fix my truck, but MOSTLY had concerns about it being done promptly without worrying about stuff being covered in overspray, stolen (since everything sits outside and your 'guard' dogs wouldn't hurt a fly), damaged further, or peed on by the dogs (this happened!). My truck may not be the greatest truck built, but I have 4 years of hard work into it and it means a LOT to ME! When you blew me off for a MONTH, then stood me up TWO DAYS IN A ROW, it confirmed my belief that I needed to have the truck redone elsewhere for my own peace of mind. It wasn't until you heard that I was having it painted by someone else that you blew up my phone, ranted on and on about me on FB, even showed up to my house.

I feel that I got the short end of the stick on this deal! I put so much effort and money into a lousy paint job. Even when I gave you the chance to fix it you continued to live up to your reputation of blowing me off and being very difficult to deal with. This entire experience was a MAJOR LOSS for me. I'm willing to put this behind us and I SUGGEST YOU DO TOO rather than spending so much time on FB and SSM, get those '30 plus' vehicles done and start to rebuild your name.

On a side note, my truck wouldn't be done if Keith didn't help. You should thank him but instead you shorted him hundreds of dollars and expected him to sleep on the floor of your office after 20 hour shifts for a week straight. You need to accept responsibility for your errors and stop blaming everyone else. Lastly, call Trevor with that F250 and paint it! He paid you in FULL up front for graphics/body/paint and all he got was a base coat without clear. I pray for your sake that your deals you have going on with a 'few' SSM arrangement go smooth because they could put you out of business if they don't. Please take my advice.

Wow, this story sounds exactly like something I recently went through. Almost every detail. Sorry to hear about what happened. I'm sure that things will get fixed and you truck will end up exactly the way that you wanted. Its a beautiful vehicle. Jimmy, I have seen some of your work and it looks great from the pics but obviously there have been some issues. Hopefully you can get things straightened out because this is never a good situation to be in.

Jimmy, I'm not wasting any more time on this. I feel like I'm dealing with a child. I never denied you did 'extra' work so all that time you put into posting all those pictures above means nothing. I feel you were more than compensated for this 'extra' work. What about all the time and grief I am going through to have your mess fixed??? If you're so interested in being fair do want to reimburse me for all my time and extra money it's costing me to have it done right by a LEGITIMATE shop? I will be more than happy to hand the bill over to you or maybe you can just give me back those 'over priced' hydraulics since you'll have your own line up soon anyhow, lol.

You constantly comment on how you get no respect. No appreciation for the extra work you do for people (because jobs run months, and YEARS, late). You never get referrals...I wonder why??? It probably has to do with your absolutely horrendous way of doing business and customer relations. Why does this happen OVER and OVER again with people??? Just focus on airbrushing and knock out some work so you don't have the police at your shop helping customers repo their own vehicles like you recently experienced.


Your pal,
Aaron

aaron i get plenty and plenty of referrals u your self played a big part in that before. your right people do have to get police when their truck is being held for non payment. like i said before talk all u want but the internet is a nice way to document a nice slander case so i really would stop now man....i can tell u i am done with this whole internet drama crap. i know street source is kinda ur world and u hate to have anyone say anything bad but had you had never brought up anything or shared our business and emails to friends i would have never said anything....there is also nothing fair about reimbursing you when u got all my money and hard work already. im just gunna write u up as another one that took everything they could get. good day
