[Valo666]

So its been almost a month since my celi got a jimmy up its a$$, and i figure its time for an update. Last time i checked(monday, national holiday, every thing closed), the celi didnt even get worked on except a bit of frame striaghting. Soooo, its supost to be done the repairs tomorrow, and the paint should take another week n a half or 2. So, im gonna go out 2 the body shop in about 20 min and take some pics(sry, they are gonna b camera phoned), and give a lil update on the celi.

So it looked like this when it went in...


and after a month..only actually 3 or 4 days of real work put into it...

So my dad called the shop 2day and they said it would take another 2 or 3weeks to paint. This duche bag said it would take 3-4 weeks for the repairs and paint. I waited 3 weeks for this guy 2 get the 1/4 pannel, tail light, and bumper sent from a place called cooksville(15 min down the highway). 3 Weeks for thouse peices. So they took 4 days to cut, weld in the new 1/4 and grind it down. So now hez sayin its gonna b at least another 2-3 weeks to paint. Most places around here can repaint a car totaly(under hood, hatch, door sils, all pannels, bumper, every thing) in 2.5 weeks...n this guys got a big shop 2. So we are sick of him dickin around cuz i need my car back. Im starting school next week, so i gotta drive to the complete other side of the city. So its either i get my car that should b back by now back, or we are gettin them to give us a good rental for having to wait longer than it should be. So im aimin for a 300 or a mustang or somethin for my rental. So it should be done by the end of next week, if not im gonna flip on these guys.

for thouse who got paint jobs, how long has it taken u for a repaint, not all around, just exterior, and door sils?
