When I brought them to Dallas. I made an outline from SZ suggestions and send it to the guys. A lot of the guys didn't realize they had so many items that needed to be corrected, others couldn't even complete them and had to drop out. I would say don't get mad at them for wanting you to get the most out of your car RELIABLY, be mad at the bad workmanship and counsel of your mechanic and suppliers. After all, its their name that gets tainted if your car is not up to par when it leaves their shop, so they have the right to decline it. The best advise I can give you is to take care of the items, demand better workmanship from your mechanic and if he can't, go to someone else that can. Not doing it is how we end up with so many dissatisfied owners and parted out junk cars in Craigslist.
