Ended up having the car fully resprayed again because the car came back the wrong shade of red and looked pink. I decided to try again and remove the rubber trim. Turns out that the soft top drain tanks have to be removed to give enough room to get the trim off, i took the soft top completely off in the end. Its a fairly big job but worth it IMO
I'm happy with the colour now thankfully, i think the pinkness is just my phone camera does not look pink in person anymore or on my girlfriends phone camera!
Unfortunately their are still bits i am unhappy about, boot lid has stuff stuck under the paint and marks that cannot be fixed along with stuff stuck in the paint on the spoiler which also cannot be fixed, Roberts motor bodies told me to go buy a touch up stick from honda..... And when i told him that is not acceptable i was greeted with abuse and told to F-Off.
on top of that my window surround is ****ed, covered in overspray and has nicks and marks all around it where the body shop attempted to remove some of the over spray.
all my keyholes are covered in scratches where they have tried to remove overspray their also. Body shop have washed their hands with it, if im honest they are a complete set of Ass-hats im now left with having to take the car elsewhere and pay again to have another bodyshop fix my boot and spoiler.
this crap all over the window surround!!!
I think they have it in their mind that they did me a favor by respraying my car again at their cost to sort out the colour issue, when in fact that should of been free of charge IMO.
Obviously my boot lid and spoiler did not even need painting, so is now in worse condition than the old 11 year old paint was??!
just for comparison this picture bellow was taken on another phone much better
Its strange how before i could not get it to look pink in photo's but it did in person, and now the colour is correct it looks pink on my new phone! But i can assure you the colour is much much better and not a hint of pink
