Hey everyone,
had a bad experience with Instant Windscreens yesterday, the guy who runs the place is a complete PHUCKWIT, charged 210bucks to my credit card for putting in a windscreen and hatch glass, took him 25mins, didnt use a sealant or anything.from what i was led to believe, it was gonna take an hour or so and they would use a sealant. i couldve done it myself the way he did it. the fella who installed them(nice guy by the way) was gobsmacked they charged me so much. the manager will not discount the price because he is an arrogant CUN7. i will never use those tossers again and id reccomend noone else does.
ive gotten onto fair trading about them, and hopefully he will grow a cock and refund some of my money.
BEWARE.

i think ill be doing the glass in the ute myself, im gonna take the car to 3 or 4 windscreen shops and get them to put in writing that i didnt get what i paid for. old mate didnt wanna hear my story, didnt care, and basically told me to tell my story walkin.
im gonna go in and see him face to face and see how big a man this cockhead is.
the falla who put it in said they normally charge that much to put glass back into showcars and exotics!!!!!!

The nob didnt use sealant? And they were happy for you to drive away with a unsealed windcreen?? WTF!

Do it yourself mate, not that hard to do, bit messy. Do you have a factory workshop manual, tells you how to do it in there, if you want i can scan in the pages tomorow and email it to you.

I'd be straight to consumer affairs too, thats b.s.

ive been onto consumer affairs and they told me to take the car to 3 or 4 different winscreen places and get in writing that the job was a ripoff.then hopefully thell hound him. i was told by the phucktard manager its up to the installer whether or not they think sealant should be used. im gonna get the hose onto it and get the cockhead out here and show him just where my money went.
gives you the shi7s you know, id have been happy to pay the 210bucks if it wasnt some yobbo rocks up with a peice of rope, slaps em in and says seeya.
not the way to do business if you ask me, and then to totally fob off the poor guy who just forked out 210big ones tis just not on.
if they dont come fix it i WILL NOT be a happy camper.
thats my b1tch, thanks for the opinions.
keep em coming.

edit- the wally kicked my beer over too, what a waste!!
