GRRRRRRR!!!!

Freaking dealership didn't finish my dash. I knew I should have waited till after the fest to get it in. They said one day, i dropped it off at 7AM. But no, apparently that crappy piece of pleather is too hard to replace. Give me the right tools and I'd probably have that sucker figured out in a few hours. They're SUPPOSED to finish tomorrow. If they don't, they're damn well giving me a loaner camaro to take up to the fest, or I'll tear down that whole dealership!!! Even a loaner would piss me off, I want MY camaro back!




And people wonder why I wont even let a performance shop touch my car.... Cause I can't stand other people touching/working on my camaro!!!!

Nobody but me will treat it the way I want it treated.

Oh and I bet money one of the techs has scraped/bottomed it out since its wayyyy lower than any other camaro they drive.


:(

I was kinda wondering why you took it in so close to C fest but I thought I'd keep my mouth shut, hope you get it back in time !

Cause my old man talked me into it. Haha
He wanted me to get it in ASAP to get the problems on record.

Well, just proof I should never listen to what the dealer says/promises. Just called again and apparently it should be done early afternoon tomorrow. They had to overnight another part of the dash that they didn't order in the first place.

Now I won't have time to re-dip my rims.

Kind of curious guys, anyone have good Photoshop skills? I was wondering what a 45th edition Camaro would look like with hash marks on both sides with 45th style colored stripes to match?

Just called the dealership to pester them on finishing my dash. Apparently it should be done in an hour. Fingers crossed!!!

Hey thanks for pointing this out! I pulled the fuses overnight and the next time I drove the car it did seem to feel more responsive and has since.
