I've seen the 'best' of the TV techs beat out fenders and flares with a hammer....

Though I will take DW's word for it, not having seen the show myself.

Hey Trev how's it going. Anyway I think the show is a nice potraial of installer life in SOME shops. But yes there a bunch of hacks. They don't do anything special at least not yet.

Talking

well here we are again, the day after whips wednesday. Reme "the hammer" was in fine form again last night, although i can't figure out what my favorite part was. the seemingly unlimited use of complex hammer installs, or was it the highly under rated use of propane torches in the dash of brand spankin' new $250,000 peterbilt's. it might also have been the carpet on the fibreglass pods that got stucke to the high gloss black doors of the 64 continental that belongs to Marcus Camby...shakin' my head...i know that sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do but on nationwide TV???

I also watched the show last night. All I can say is WTF!I really liked the part when the one dude mis-mesured the top lid for that speaker box
I think he actully stomped on the lid to get into place! Nice mesuring.The customer's face was also pricless upon delivery of the car with yellow window tint....nananastyy

I still fail to see why people bring their pride and joys to such hack shops? Can they not see what kind of garbage quality is done? Like seriously. Anywhere that I've lived, if a place does garbage work, word gets out quick and the place that charges more and does better work gets the nice jobs.
