I could use some advice.

Per my post from last week I turned my Camaro BACK into Watson's body shop after they rear bumper panel was not even close to being attached properly.

I just got home with it and it appears that it is STILL not fixed. It is much better than it was but it still pops in and out a bit towards the center. There is also one small paint bubble/piece of sand in the rear bumper (annoying but not obvious).

What should I do at this point? It does not seem as though they have the slightest clue how this car is put together.

I am assuming that the insurance company is footing the bill for this. If they are, I would take it to a reputable independant shop and have them fix it and let the insurance company deal with Watson for the backcharge of having someone else doing it right. Run it by the insurance company and see what they say. If you need a recommendation for a good shop, let me know.

OK.

The Shop

Ask for Don Kline and tell him that Glen sent you. Tell him that I am Tod Zeman's uncle. He does really good work.

I agree. He did my new front end. Very good work and is easy to talk to.

Hey Copper, I was behind you leaving base in my wife's Z and I wanted to let you know that your wheels look great in person. Your pics don't do it justice.

Just wanted to pass on a great PDR guy here in Tucson. I had him fix 2 dents on my Camaro and 3 on my Altima. He's very reasonable and the dents are completely gone. His name is Andy.

Thanks man!
It was hard to choose but I'm happy with the results.

You know, I've had a few people tell me that. Maybe I need a different set of pictures...

I wasn't very impressed with them either, I had them straighten a small crease in my quarter and they touched up the spot after they cracked the paint. It looked pretty bad afterward. I won't be going to them again...

I think my wife has caught the ZL-1 bug. She is now updating me on videos on the internet, she told me this morning as I was watching a ZL-1 video from chevy that they had just uploaded it...She has already told me that if it comes in Carbon Flash Matallic that this will be the color she would want to have on the car.

I think I created a monster...

Do you know how lucky you are?? I would be sprinting to my car to get that car if my husband would just give the go ahead.

Hey Bodih, saw you turning into WalMart last weekend - you waved but I was a bit behind you. I was blinded by those wheels - looked sweet!

Thought it was you. Just ran in there for oil and a filter. Your car was looking spotless as always. Were you heading to the theater?
