Now you know that dumb move by Sharif really pissed me off.
The only loaner car I recieved when I was there was Dil's gold Z. I guess he felt that Dil would not mind. Plus Sandy called it "the shop loaner"

Anyone not having experience with extensively modifying their vehicles will undoubtedly become frustrated with unexpected and prolonged delays. This is not a unique story to you or to the shop which you refer. It is only different in that the shop stands behind its work and has attempted to resolve the issue in a fair and upstanding manner.
Word to the wise for anyone that has never or is not use to the process of modifying a car extensively: Do not do it unless you have another car, a lot of time, and more money (or the skill to do it yourself).
My car has been at Forged Performance since this summer, and my experience has been no different than the shops I have used previously. There are always delays and issues that arise along the way. But I can say that I sent my car to Sharif because I trust him to do what's right. Sharif doesn't just sell car parts and tuning. One of his most valuable products is his trust, knowing that Sharif will make things right in the end.
He also is a business man. He has to keep cars moving through his garage to make sure he can pay the bills. You cannot make money when you are waiting on parts or trying to solve unexpected issues. He does not make any money problem solving. The bigger the project, the more likely the project is going to be put to the side in order get paying jobs through the door. It's just the way it is. He cannot keep his doors open any other way.

Glad to see everyone is having fun!
Morale of the story:
Even after customer disrespects Sharif in public, Forged still offers to do the right thing to try and correct the situation.
