Nice ride, I love the body kit on your car. What kind of body kit is this?

shaved emblem gone wrong
Hey guys,
I had a shop shave and fill in my front bumper emblem last week. When I got it back, I thought it looked great. Then, when I carefully inspected it, the part where the emblem was removed was flat, not rounded out to the shape of the surrounding areas. When I asked the body shop why it looked like that, the owner explained to me that he used fiberglass filler, and then bondo on top of that, but when that stuff dries, it shrinks a bit. He says that it was round when they started painting it, but that it shrunk and flattened. I complained, because I paid a crapload of money for him to work on that, and it didn't turn out right. He said that he would try it again for me, but he can't guarantee that it will turn out perfect. I see a lot of pics in this thread of the front emblem shaved and they all look perfect and smooth, so can someone please tell me what method their body shop used for this mod? I want to make some suggestions to him so that he can get the job done correctly. Also, how much did you guys pay? I'm curious as to whether i'm being ripped off big time.

I believe he was talking about your rear hamburger not being shaved and I was talking about the immense hue difference where the fenders meet the skirt, it that area, and that area alone, it LOOKS photoshopped.
I'll take your work for it though
