Just tell them that you have over 2,000 posts on a site called automags.org

Don't report them to the police = turns into a Mongoose topic

Report them to the police = start a trend on this forum to mark the standard for these guys that do these kinda of dealings

good EFING point
EDIT* just hope you get a resolve that you are happy with bunny

Every project has it's challenges etc not every part is the same (diff metals, condition, shape) my polisher made a mistake on your body. I'm trying to remedy this situation with u. Why u throwing me under the bus bro? I've read your reviews. It's not I said screw u, I apologized and I'm trying to fix this.

Gee Bro y u throw Bunny under the bus and rip him off after you wrecked his rare marker. There is no try. Only Do or do not. You are not refunding his money and replaceing what you destroyed. Charge your polisher for it. You ARE screwing him.

Do to the amount of money involved in this project and the admittance of the business saying his crew messed up. I would just proceed with a property damage in small claims court. The business already has admitted to negligence.

most important:
Negligence concepts are tricky: Don't try to be a judge. There is often no foolproof way to determine in advance whether someone will be judged to be negligent. In fact, when it comes to accidents, it's often so close a question that lawyers regularly fail to predict the outcome. So if you have suffered a real loss and think someone else caused it, bring your case, present as much evidence supporting your point of view as possible, and let the judge decide.

Telling the police wont do nothing really and they arent gonna do nothing unless its involving a crime, this was just bad business practice.

Sad to say but its either refund or see him in court, realistic options.

I do not really understand why he kept comparing his finish to powder coating. That makes zero sense. What really bugs me though is if I can make a .004-.01" thick coating (depending on finish type and number of coats) work on a paintball gun with ultra tight tolerances why can't he do it with neochrome. His comment about the barrel porting being the issue of needing to repolish the barrel is outrageous. There are specific high heat tapes made exactly for this purpose. I use them every day doing barrels to cover the inside of the barrel from material getting past the porting and sticking to the inside of the barrel. If you run into parts that are so beyond repair let me know, I can get all the putting and such smoothed out and filled in for you. It may take me a bit of time because I need to build the surface back up but I can do it if it helps you out.

I would take them to small claims if you can, the damage to those parts is unacceptable.

Now I do understand why I does a while for them to do the parts (neo chroming is a greatly expensive process, costing $1000s to make even one run through the machine). It is possible their were waiting to build a full run before doing the parts to make it cost effective.

With the ordeal you have dealt with the last year. And the fact this is a "legit" business. Not a one man do you a favor deal. I would want a full refund. And my part replaced. IE fair market value. Otherwise I'd at least look in to a layer.

I think Speedstar Racing wants to finish the project so that it looks better for their reputation. However, finding the pieces in a reasonable time frame and at a reasonable price is going to nearly take a miracle. They might not realize what will be involved obtaining these pieces. Also, they may feel that giving you a refund will set a bad precedent (others may want refunds). If this is their thinking, its unacceptable. They destroyed your property, didn't perform the services you requested and have no realistic approach to making things right. Small claims court may be your only option. It wouldn't be the option I'd want to take but they might be forcing your hand. I'm sorry for your problems and thank you for letting other know so they don't suffer the same.

Wow Bunny, what a terrible situation. You are truly a man of unbelievable patience and self control. The tough part is that this amount of money for a local small claims court would be easy to file and take on. Out of state is an entirely different matter.
It may cost you more money to maintain the case versus what you win. Given legal fees and travel expenses are typically not reimbursable expenses by the court. You'll win a morale victory but how much more will it cost?
I wish you the best in this case and I'm sure all of us here will do our best to spread the word about this dirtbag.

I must be missing something, .04-.1" coating thickness?!

there is no way thats correct, thats ginormous, the marker would look like a marshmallow afterwards

I could see maybe .004-.01 (and even .01 is a little ridiculous sounding to me)

I think he is speaking in "mils" which is standard measure for plating. Divide by 1000 to get inches.

Yes, my phone missed a 0 when I was typing my response. It really is not all that thick, thinner than that plating looks for sure.

It looks completely fine afterwards. Does not hide milling or anything of the sorts. Definitely does NOT look like a marshmallow



Even with a textured coating parts still fit together fine (this was 8mils)







What I am saying is I don think these guys have any idea what they are doing or really care about what they are doing when it comes to tolerances. They should stick to car parts
