Fabrication

I'm building a really nice and fast car for a customer. He brought a expensive "pre bent cage kit" from a very high end race shop. I hate it. It dont fit and is to short to bend and make right.

At this point I dont even want to install it. I would rather thro the entire thing in the trash and build one that fits nice.

The customer dosen't want to buy two cages so I said I won't even charge you for the time just pay for the tube and I'll build you something I will be proud to put my name on.

I'm so unhappy about the entire thing I dont want this to roll out my door and have people associate this with our work or think this is our level of craftsmanship.

What do you folks think I should do?
Stand your ground and tell him the kit he bought is a POS and you won’t use it. Explain that the only way you will do the work is to do it your way...no compromise.

If he walks, let him walk. You can’t compromise your quality for a customer, no matter what.

If he values your expertise, he will do it your way. If he doesn’t...bubbye.
