As other have said, don't go in. Do a chargeback and be done with it. You have nothing to gain by going in to see him.

$325 to install front and rear sway bars? I don't think that guy knew what he was getting into. The rear should be like 6-8 hours of labor. It's not an easy task.

I think they made up for some of that labor on other things. Like 360 in labor to install strut braces, intake, and a jb4 haha. I have the eventuri intake, and it took less than an hour for me to install that and I'm not a fast mechanic by any means.

Yea but he still told me it would be on the car haha. Just sucks! I do agree with you however.

What exactly is "Switchover cost - M240i (Burger)"?

and how is the $199 Burger Tuning Supra intake billed for $479? https://burgertuning.com/products/bms-intake-for-2020-a90-toyota-supra

As far as I can tell, you got ripped another $660...

Unless they f'd up buying the $479 M240 intake and charged you more to retrofit it.. https://burgertuning.com/products/bms-gen-2-b58-competition-enclosed-performance-intake

1 hour for me to install the JB4 for the first time, which includes uninstall/reinstall of the strut brace and intake. $360 is oof lol. Double a fair rate.

Well? Did you go ? Still alive??

I did not go and he ended up refunding me for the sway and half the labor. I also received 80% back on my dyno and tune. He called Monday and was actually really nice and made it hassle free.

no clue what happened to change his mind between my initial post and Monday.

So you let this scammer still keep some your money? I cannot believe you’re letting him smile his way out of this by being nice after getting called out. This type of bullshit is exactly why people like him keep doing it. Unbelievable

Joe and his crew were planning on silencing you for good, seems like he couldnt plot the perfect murder and changed his mind last minute. Woulda been funny if you showed up to his place with your crew vs his and throw it down?

 

[jtsang25]

Damn what a push over. Calling for a charge back would have got all your money back.

 

[EddieNel]

If you’re good with it then im good with it. Don’t let them bust your ballz. There is definitely a lesson to be had here and I feel you’ve learned it. Everyone should be thankful that you shared it. Good luck with your build.

Seems unlikely.

Greg hasn't been bodysnatched.

I was lowkey excited to go up to the shop for the confrontation ?

OP, shame on you for letting him get away with it. You are a pushover.
