i've had this happen before.. and this is what i've taken as a course..
let them have it as is.. they've already approved and will pay you for your work..
then.. clean it up on your own.. for your own sake.. and make it what you want it to be..
use that version ... as your porfolio piece..
then.. in about .. say 2 months.. go back to the client.. and show them your "port" version.. tell them that you've made some improvements on the design on your own.. and you were wondering if they liked.. if so.. then tell them you'd be glad to implement the changes to their site for a nominal fee..
this way.. you get the portfolio piece right away.. and you also get paid for cleaning it up later on.. "consider it an ongoing service to better the design community" is what i told my client.. they bought it ;)
