Actually I know what you mean.
They guy that did any welding I needed on the Skodas had a very sorry
looking CRX in one day. It had a kit fitted, but had been sent to his
neighbour for a respray by the guy that bought it.
When they got the kit off to respray the car (some minor rust had shown
through the filler used to blend the kit). The whole bottom half of the
door and rear quarter on both sides was missing. It was the blended kit,
and the sills that was hlding it together.
I think if he hadn't just bought it for £2.5k he wouldn't have even had
it done.
