Sad that they took your car and sat on it. Did they say how long it would be, or did they just sit on it to keep the job from going somewhere else? There's always High Tech auto body up here in Elsmere, tremendous work quality priced right...

They normally have gotten it back to me by Thurs if I drop it off Monday......that being said........they didn't call me today either. I will rattle the cage tomorrow and see what's up... Guess my problem is, is that I am not screaming and yelling cause I don't want it rushed...I want it done right..... If I hadn't already had the car in there because I thought the rear spoiler was their fault I would not have had them do the door at the same time....my mistake.... I definitely would have chosen another place....kinda figured lightning wasn't going to strike me again......they normally have a good reputation. If there is a next time its either my dealer who did my rear bumper and the warranty stuff or I might ask JimW, he works at Winner Ford and has done some of the work on his car.....not really interested in traveling that far..but thanks.

Jim if you want you can always try Allisons Auto Shop... it only usually take them 1 day to paint my parts... it might be a lil faster.. i know they did my rear GFX and strut bar in half a day..

Yeah, probably was his......I know he has upgrades capable of making that kind of power.
The only other black one with power like that around here is DoverBlk2SS/RS and he's close to 700. yeah George, hopefully this will be the end of my paint problems.......we'll see.

Yeah, thanks guys........apparently their painter had given his 2 weeks notice.....they acted like it was a joke last week when I dropped it off...apparently it was true.....so this so called guy from Dupont (or where ever) is actually their new guy at the shop not someone special.....I may get my ride back Thursday? who the f--- knows....at least now the owner knows I am really not freakin' happy especially when my neighbor dropped off his van Thursday and he picked it up last night. and it needed a small amount of body work and paint WTF??? sounds like I got taken to the cleaners. Guess thats what I get for trying to be Mr Nice Guy and not blow the f--- up...........That car better be right thats all I gotta say.

Man that sucks I just stopped by Allisons yesterday and asked about having some rockers installed they said drop it off this week and they will get it done.
You might want to give them a shot next time.

Hopefully there won't be a next time....... it was just one of those things that made sense at the time to just have them do it.....I mean they had the spoiler and since they did the stripes I had them fix it in case something happened, then the same guy could do his own stripes over with the same paint and everything.....meanwhile they could paint the door when they painted the spoiler.....everything would have been fine if the paint on the door didn't come out screwed up.....since they have been paid for the job, I don't want to pay someone else again to fix it.....matter of fact I don't have the money to do it anyway.
