    They are doing a great job. Look how clean they cut out the tabs that were there to hold the piece of plastic on the bottom vent. Thanks for the parts Scott!!!

        They claim (not holding them to it) it will be done Saturday (please please please)

        Painted core support





        Hood

        (I would have preferred it if thay had masked off or removed the hardware)



        Is lippy & bumper surrounds

                    What about the rest of the car's paint? In mehiko, the sun is bright....isn't the color a bit faded in comparison to the new stuff? :(

                      oohh that is rough man.. even tho your getting a completely new front end you really cant beat priginal paint, immaculate car.. atleast it wasnt your fault but non the less shitty happenings.. looks to be comming along great tho, im sure it will be close to the same car you remember.

                          Looks better than new - they're doing a great job, really.

                              AC components in, electrical components going in:






                              Preview of painted bumpers:



                              Thanks for noticing the unpainted black area, I hadn't seen it. I told them it needs black & they will fix it.

                              I think it looks brighter because the flash is concentrated there. The whole car was already painted....

                              Now the miraculous news:

                              Thay claim I'll have it TOMORROW!!!

                              Not getting my hopes up too high..

                                Had to go again and now she has eyes:

                                Colorsanding the car and. .......See the ballast?


                                Another of the rear bumper. Still waiting on the front


                                BTW I asked if they could make an oil pan guard, brought them the picture and they said they would. Anyone interested on a sub 100 (or so) oil pan protector? (plus shipping from Texas)
