Finally got my clutch problem fixed(pics)

Well last week my clutch has been out for the past week hence why I have failed to ship out a few trades that i've made (headlights etc) Anyhow, Friday I took my car to the guy that was to replace my clutch around 11am...Around 4 i call him to ask him when would he have it done and it told me he just started and it should be tomorrow, Well 7pm that night he calls me for the final time and tells me to pick it up that it was done. So one fast service = FTW! And I'm happy because I didn't burn out my clutch like I originally thought. It turns out the Pressure Plate collapse causing the slipping to happen. I asked him is this something that someone could do in 3 months and he told me hell no. The person who had the car last had to ride the clutch so much that it created so much heat that it finally caused the pressure plate to bend and flex like it did.

Below are pics of the pressure plate and disc from the car...The rust was there because he left the parts outside and it rained.






Its actually really hard to see the major dips in it but side by side comparison you can notice how bad its pushed in.
