"We have put in place a strong QC routine that will insure these oversights of missing clips and such so this won't happen again. "
I think a lot of people would like to know and be entitled to know exactly what this QC routine consists of, and why you were not doing so before?
I'm sure you lost ALOT of potential business from these last two posts!

I received some more info and pictures from a name I will not mention.....all I will say is ...he/she is not a regular on here....
I am sure this will all come out soon....so let me say this in advance. Usually when things start to fall apart...it does so very quickly. Look at Tiger Woods.....he screws a few ******.....but more ****** that he has never seen come out of no where claiming that they were also screwed....I hope you get my point.
I have seen the pictures and the bills that proves the point. Yes it's shocking.....I am quite sure that Sharif knows what he needs to do to get back his good name.....he does not need me to tell him.
I just want to let other shops that serve this community know that they too are also put on notice.....because if a shop like FP can have issues like this.....I am sure I don't have to say more.
Like I said before...this can only help future customers get what they have paid for.....transparency is the way I see it now.
I will not discuss anything further about FP f-ups or what I now know.....If the discussion is what they can do to clean up ...then I am in. But the point has been made.

These issues wouldnt have happened if they werent trying to take on more cars than they could handle.
The guy wanting to see his car on a lift and then watching a drive up GTR wanting a coolant change is an example of this. Why put car A on a lift when you already have the money? Lets put car B on the lift...greediness can occur at all levels of income and success. Nobody can argue there isnt/wasnt some of that going on here.

I have no first hand knowledge other than what I have read on the various threads, I just hope this is not a case of the supporters hanging on until it is too late to have warned others as they did with Performance Factory, and then when it is over come out and say "I knew about about but couldn't say"

On another note..... I don't want members to think that I am turning my back on him.....I am not that kind of a person to turn my back on a friend when he has problems.
I am about to buy a new car made by Nissan... And have another joint venture between FP and GTM..... Pic of every stage will be posted on schedule.
The catch is.... He will sign a contract that car will be finished on a selected date or labor is free.
Some say ego is an issue... Some say greed.... I feel life experiences can change people.
