I'm anxious to confirm what shop you are dealing with.
Protect the shop, brilliant!
hmm interesting..
I remember that thread, didn't he try and call out the seller for not showing him the dings?
All I can say is those asking for the shops name, it wouldn't be right posting it. We are only getting ONE SIDE of the story right now. Each individual who are involved in these situations will always consider themselves the victim.
I think the name should be kept out. If the OP is taking legal action then I'm sure the situation will be dealt with and that shop wouldn't be bending people over anymore anyways. And besides that, the possibility of you going to that shop for work probably doesn't even exist for most.

If this IS the same shop, then it does seem that the higher cost was known 4 months ago. I'm so confused.
At this point this whole thing is muddy at best. I'm not taking the side of the shop or the car owner, but until we have all of the correct information (from both parties), we have no right to pass judgement on either. Right now we are only getting bits and pieces from the car owner and from another thread. Again, I'm not siding with the shop. But we've seen other times here where a car owner accused a shop and then when the shop stated their side, things changed.
I foresee that lessons will be learned in the end by both parties.
Nope this was a different shop. I ended up getting the car out of there to bring it to what I thought was a more reputable shop. Although the initial proposal was higher I felt the job would get done right. Guess I was wrong.

Wrong. The car was pulled from that shop. I was originally quoted 2k for the work there. The owner tried to pull a bait and switch on me with 5k when it got there.
This shops proposal was 4100 and change. They were higher but I've been using them for awhile. I felt they'd do the job right and in that case paying a premium was worth it to not deal with the initial situation.

let me ask you a question - why didn't you take it to the shop your friend took his to. He was supposed to get it back in a week. you couldn't wait that long to see how his turned out before you started on yours? how did his car turn out?
Guys, alot of you need to chill out a bit. svt monster has alot of money and time into this and he came here to ask/ inform this community of what was going on with him and to ask for opinions. We do not need to be so critical of him, but to support him with what's going on. Remember we all share a similar interest..... the love of our svt products! He is doing the right thing in not naming the shop just yet. It could negatively affect the possible outcome of any legal/ financial settlement. afterall is said and done would be the time to name the shop,not slander them. I know this from experience. The internet is a great place to get informed, but can also hurt you in legal aspects if your not careful! svt monster tread carefully and good luck! stick by your guns and get whats coming to you.
This is like days of my lives , or as my stomach turns, quite the soap opera .
Just heard who got laid off, so that just reconfirmed everything for me.
My one piece of advice to you OP, please have your car gone over top to bottom before you run/drive/tune/do anything with your car.

Because the OP said the owner of the shop was laying someone off, the guy who said He can confirm what shop it is obviously had an idea of what shop it was, and now that someone has been laid off, which he probably heard about, confirms it.
If that makes any sense at all.
^^^winner!^^^
Word is, he heard it through his brothers girlfriends uncle Tommy who knew one of the previous employees at another shop who knows that owners 3rd cousin Jesse which is really good friends with the daughter of the owner of that shop which laid off that other worker. From what I hear from my brothers friends uncle who knew OP's great grandmother 7 years before he met uncle Tommy.
