next time do your own work. that way when you screw it up, you'll learn the correct way and have the extra dough to make it right.

I get it, "tough love" LoL!!

The thing here is that most of us know that once uve past a certian point in ur jeep build, it becomes ur passion & life long hobby, & that if ur gonna pay for fab work that you urself cannot do, then a greater respect should be had for that persons jeep!! Its not like were a bunch of corperate big wigs who tradE stocks all day then pay someone to build these jeeps!! No, its the hard working class type of guys that wrench on their rigs in there spare time & enjoy it!! NO shop should be this negligent towards a fellow jeeper under any circumstances!! PERIOD!!

Anyways, i am learning to weld, do my own fab work, & have posted some of my stuff on here, so ur advice is well taken!!

Oh I agree 100% that no one should ever get screwed over like this. All I'm saying is, the more you learn to do, the more money you save. And then the more you can modify and improve.
