Default help me ..i have holes in my car!!!!!!

i know its a little long..but please read it



i took my car to a really TRUSTED body shop

they hardwired my V1 and put amazingly cut 20% tints all aroud...

when they got to installing the "parktronic" (sensors that beep when you are too close to a car when your car is in reverse) they really F***Ked up..

when i picked up my car i backed out of teh place and the parktronic was on a "steady beep" (meaning it was sensing something RIGHT behind it)...of course there was nohgn there so that means they installed the damn sensors in the wrong place (because the sensors were detecting teh ground because they were at the wrong angle)

the truth is they had guy install it that i never knew worked thre...when i showed it to the other guy he figured out the problem

they are going to put the sensonrs in the right place and make it work but heres the bad part

the sensors are drilled in (something i knew about)..but the bad news is the current holes that they drilled no longer have sensors filling them in!!!..so now i have 4 holes in addition to another four that will be filled with the new sensors


so thats 8 holes...4 with sensors 4 without

dont get me wrong..the ones that have the sensors in them cant even be seen..even when they are seen they are pretty cool lookin

but now how do i fill the other holes

the guy suggested that i fill them with another 4 sensors that arnt functional (just there to cover the holes)

is there another option to fill the holes?

im pretty pissed about this because i paid a lot of cash and got a **** job

help!!!!!

The answer is simple. Make the shop fix the holes, or pay to fix them. If they refuse, threaten a lawsuit. It was their mistake that caused it.

ummm yeah it seems simple.

they need to pay to replace the bumper, and repaint it.

they screwed up big time, and you could sue them for it if you wanted. gonna cost them about 500$ to replace the rear bumper.

If the sensors really can't be seen, or if they are cool looking, just have them put sensors in all the holes and not hook the "wrong" ones up.

Of course, I agree with the others that I'd make them fix the bumper, but this might be a compromise that you're satisfied with.
