    ok for me the worst places have been RPM in lewisville, texas. had the car for a week and left 7 valve cover bolts loose, a/c wireing pulled from its caseing and alternator wire severd. nothing like the smell of burning oil with your new headers. eagle transmission rowlette, texas. fellas she still aint right after 12 trips and 5 tow bills, bent exhaust, probley 60 gallons of tranny fluid to fix a problem even after a BBB report no response. i dont want to sell my car because some jackass cant do his job right and if its wrong i dont want to be hassled for it. both places still to this day are arrigant saying we dont do crappy work like that. guess what you do! other people have told me simular points about these two in particular.

    took my car to the dealershit (big mistake) to fix a power steering leak and i asked them to clean out the engine when they were done cuz shit leaked everywhere... they sprayed some bullshit (i think superclean) on my motor and it etched all the aluminum and it left a white powdery finish throughout the whole motor. It looked like complete SHIT.
    Ive never really had anyone fuck up something that was vital though (knock on wood)

    Luckily, I know a Dude from LS1 TECH that has HP Tuners, that helps, and oh yea, I have access to any kind of welding at work. I will have to go to DRE for a dyno tune though.

    Rock-on transmission it leaked like a overfilled diaper everywhere. I complained and i was told it was due to the lift on my truck...

    Kennys auto shop in hurst they screwed in a radiator on my beater with wood screws through the radiator i did not know this until i took it to another shop because it was leaking after awhile.

    They also said they fixed my jeep after i hit a curb yet the rear axle was bent (they said they replaced it) also they gave me old motormounts off the same year jeep and those broke in 2 weeks, they also ruined my carb.

    I got the run around in why they would not redo my tranny to stop it from leaking until i got the "Its because it is lifted and you abused it" junk when i used it for a weekend driver around town. Plus before he got my cash he was real friendly after that some chick in his shop and him started talking down to me.

    My worst expierence was when I went and had some new tires put on my Giovanna Rims, they obviously did'nt know what they were doing, because they chiped the chrome right off the wheel lip. They did replace them after they found out that I was not very happy.
