FINALLY getting my car back after over 2 and 1/2 months in the body shop - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Dropped my car off August 2nd after that goddamn hail storm. The shop replaced the hood, roof, and trunk and repainted my whole car as well as re-striped it. Finally they called me yesterday and told me it will be done tomorrow afternoon.

SO Excited. I've been driving an Altima Hybrid rental car the whole time. Great on gas but a piece of my soul dies every time I drive it.

I had to drive a Nissan Rouge for two days. What a piece of crap that thing was. I can't imagine two and a half months!

Glad you got your car back but why did it take that long?

Wakemaker89 · 10-20-2011, 07:43 PM

That's a long time to go without your car is the permagrin still in effect?

angie7 · 10-20-2011, 08:00 PM

That's great, man! I gotta admit, though, I'm kinda worried about how good a job they did. :(

Congrats man. After it being gone that long, you will feel like you did the 1st time you drove it.
