Call Dave at Invinca-Shield.... his family started the company and they do most of the Porsche and high end dealerships in New England. They did a great job on my Gallardo... Good luck and keep us posted.

The guy's name is Dave Diminico and he works out of Rockland Ma. After seeing this post I called them and had them put venture shield on my 1 week old brand new 2008 Escalade Platinum Edition. Within 2 hours the covering was bubbling and peeling. I immediately texted Dave pics of the problem. Dave did not stand behind his work or his product and had the gall to accuse me of causing the problem. I asked him to explain the reasoning for me to ruin a $500.00 job I just had done on an $80K vehicle. Of course he couldn't think of a logical reason, but still denied doing anything wrong.

I told him that since he was not willing to stand behind his product or it's installation, I wanted the venture shield removed and he came to do that 2 days later.
When Dave finally looked at the job, he finally admitted that there were some "installation issues". When he removed the venture shield it exposed all the deep razor cuts that were put into the paint of my brand new black car during the installation his company did.

Prior to the installation Dave had touted venture shield as being better than all the other competitor's products because the pieces were pre-cut and didn't need to be cut on the car. They probably figured I would never have the shield removed, and therefore would never see the damage they caused.

After removing the venture shield, Dave jumped in his car and took off as fast as he could. I called him on his cell phone several times as he was driving away, and he wouldn't answer. I even text messaged him once. I pleaded with him to come back and inspect the damage on my vehicle. Dave did not return and did not return any of my messages. Instead he had his father Tom call me an hour later to stick up for him. Tom Diminico told me to sue them because "at the most, they were looking at a small-claims court case".

I contacted the better business bureau, the state's Attorney General's office, and an attorney. I am going to sue them in court to hold them responsible for ruining my brand new vehicle.

I can't stress enough how terrible my experience with dealing with venture shield and Dave and Tom Diminico has been. In my opinion, one would be very wise to stay clear of the Diminico's, their company, their products, and their "services". If anyone would like to see photos of the damage the Diminico's company did to my new car, PM me and I will send them to you via email.

motorcop71 - Sorry to hear about your brand new Escalade

I can hook you up with my installer if you are looking to get it re-done. I have been using them for about 7 years now without any problems. Feel free to drop me a PM if you are interested.

VentureShield Contact

Motorcop71,

I was thinking about having the VentureShield installed on my Escalade. I was referred to the place in Rockland Ma. but after reading the negative posts on this forum, I'm not sure about the company. Can you please provide/post the company and or name of your installer ?

Contact TCM. His installer did my car, and the Ventureshield is holding up well.

Wow. I'm searching for Ventureshield installer on South Shore, MA. Proabably a good chance that I would've come across this guy without knowing the background. Thanks for posting your experience.
