Wink Getting my car back today.!

The body shop called today and said that my car is almost ready to be picked up.

Last week I was in my school parking lot when my car was hit in the rear quarter panel, there was a big dent and the surrounding paint was spider cracked. And to no surprise, no note saying sorry. bastards.

Anywho, after $536.00 later, my car is almost ready to be picked up. They said that they are putting back in, the glass and finishing waxing the car after detail.

Well I figure that I just paid $500 for a car detail and wax. My car needed it anyway.

Sorry no pics, I don't want to remember that day.

No macco... nasty.

The shop said they use OEM paint, and they said they will take out two windows and drop the rear bumper, just for the rear quarter panel.

Plus lifetime against fading, cracking, discolor etc.

Congrats on getting your car back. I recently turned mine in for repairs. I hope the turnaround time will be as fast as yours, but I doubt it. The estimates were at least four or more weeks.

7 weeks is just crazy.

When I get it back it is going strait to Honda to fix the seat and the radio. The seat moves and sqeaks, and the radio is not even, flush with the dash. <--- They did that when they replaced my AC vents.

Yeah, I am driving around in my moms old accord. Now that car is slow. it is a 2001 Accord, 4 door. 4cly.
