VMax got the "Curse of the Saturn Mould"

The Curse ruined 3 vendors, and many a builders dream. And a lot of other things besides.

Best left swept under the carpet.

I've used Tim for my panels, well my nose, bonnet and scuttle and they're plenty good enough. They are straight from the mold too so need finishing.

Ouch isn’t that the truth.

I’ll always recommend Equinox simply because they have the best quality bodywork that’ll last much longer than thinner less quality ones

I know you tried to provide a needed service, I know a lot of peeps lost money, but I know it was never your intention for it to end that way. Poor moulds and a difficult process ends in much wasted time, effort and material.

You tried, failed and lost more than any builder..... the show of face and lack of denial (which was always the case) does reinforce your intentions were good.
