Document an Installation: Vehicle, Parts, Scope and Finished Result

Build a record another customer can understand

A useful installation example answers more than whether the finished vehicle looks good. Identify the vehicle year, model and trim, the actual installed products and the work the shop completed. Explain any relevant starting condition or existing modification. Keep the description specific enough to distinguish the job from a generic service claim.

Use exact part identifiers when available. If the brand or part number cannot be verified, describe the part without inventing an identification. Do not label a project a Vicrez installation solely because the shop appears in this directory.

Capture the stages honestly

• Before: show the vehicle and the area involved so the starting condition is clear.
• During: identify relevant preparation or test-fit stages. Label unfinished work as work in progress.
• After: show the completed installation from useful angles, including details that explain the result.
• Context: explain what the shop performed and what was supplied or completed by someone else.
• Labels: identify renderings, inspiration images and product photographs as such. They are not proof of a completed installation.

Keep the customer record and public story separate

A customer may keep a detailed private record containing invoices and correspondence. A public project page should contain only the information needed to understand the installation. Leave out the customer’s personal contact information and unrelated documents. Check photos for personal items or identifying details that should not be shared.

Before submitting media for publication, confirm you are entitled to use it and that the people involved have agreed to the proposed public use. Provide a caption describing the work rather than copying someone else’s review. If permission is unresolved, keep the image out of the public submission until it is settled.

For shops contributing to this directory

Prepare the vehicle details, services performed, parts used, completion month and a short factual summary. Select photographs that document the same job and explain each stage. An owner can submit project details through the available shop-management process after access has been reviewed; publication still requires review.

Separate the project story from current business policies. Confirm services, customer-supplied-parts acceptance and contact arrangements explicitly. A past project can demonstrate what happened on that vehicle; it does not promise the same scope, timing or price for every new request.

For customers collecting a finished vehicle

Save the agreed scope, final invoice, installed-part identifiers and the shop’s care instructions. Photograph the finished result and make a note of any agreed follow-up. If there is a question later, this record helps you explain the actual installation without relying on memory or a generic product image.
