Figure it's a good Valentine's day present for my wife. Our Celica is going into the shop on Saturday next week. Here's a recap of what happened.
Accident the day before Thanksgiving: So what's being done?? The obvious: New Hood, Front Bumper Cover, passenger side fender, Projector Low and High beams. The not-so-obvious: FULL paint job. Shaved front marker lights. Shaved door handles. Clifford Matrix RSX 3.3 Remote Start Alarm System DCW Ducktail spoiler is being molded in for a smooth transition. 5th Gen Power Mirrors being put on 3Post Spoiler holes being welded/smoothed All the little dents/dings being removed. And immediately after we get the car back: DCW Gauge Face Cover (like in Dustin's car) Finishing the Red/Black CF interior stuff Kenwood DDX-812 going into the car I'm going to try to get some stuff done before we take the car in, adn I'll be working on the car while it's in the shop. Will keep updating this thread as things progress. I'm SOOOOOOO excited that it's finally being fixed. This post has been edited by Fastbird: Jun 1, 2009 - 9:09 PM -------------------- |

Well, no pics, haven't seen the car since the last update. Talked to the body guy yesterday though, and I'm dropping off the accent bulb housings to him tomorrow before heading out of town tomorrow night for 10 days. He's telling me he should have it primed by the time we get there tomorrow evening, and already has the DCW spoiler molded in and set up and most of the little dents already straightened.
It's a matter of fact now that we will be going with the factory red. I had to drop $350 unexpectedly on a new oil scavenge pump for the Vette, and may have to rebuild the turbo's as both had oil pushed past the seals. More pics to come sometime over the weekend most likely. Not really going to have computer access for a few days after tomorrow. -------------------- |
