Buddy was on vacation with me the past week and dropped his boat off last weekend before we met up for vacation.. well yesterday he picked up his boat.. what was supposed to be a simple replace the factory decals with new and add one color to cover some scatches now looks like the embarrassment of the lake and a small claims court suit in the works.. I asked if Stevie Wonder was the installer or a 4 year old kid.. prepare yourself this is the worst thing i have ever seen.. also the design is not how it was supposed to be and the scale is larger than supposed to be...

Wow that's bad. On a boat you're also supposed to use at least Oracal 751 vinyl. That's cheap junk.

I would not have accepted it from the shop and made them repair it right. That is unbelievable.

they said this is how they do all there boats and cars and if he refuses to pay then they are going ot put a mechanics lean on it and take possession.. he paid to get it out of there.. the case will be to small claims, lawyer already working things up as he was basically forced to pay for junk thin vinyl and they refused to fix it even after it being wrong colors in wrong spots compared to the sample worked up before start..

you must remember there are alot of bad shady people in this world that push people around to get what they want.. well buddy lawyered up. due process is to come... these type of things is the reason i have a retainer with my lawyer...

ok cool you wont fix and wont give a refund for the shit work. no problem, ill have my lawyer contact you have a nice day..

That's why I don't like tape graphics, sooner or later they get shabby looking. When I had the outside of our boat re-done in red Imron all we did was a simple boot stripe.

Hopefully you won't get a counter case, due to public defamation on this forum! :P

Dang....they can call us as witnesses....that is a pile of crap job. I would sue them for defamation of the boat. Surprised the motor would crank. I think the title of that judge show will be STICKER SHOCK.
