Repairs are done and paint finished

Finally got the car back after the repairs and paint.
Still need to clean up the black trim and seal the paint in a couple weeks.
Went ahead and installed the new material on the door inserts while it was in the shop.
Also moved the tweeters up and into the door panel. Sounds much better.
In the before pic it hard to tell but the tail gate was bent across the bottom and a big dent in the middle.
I had the shop delete the front and rear H badges as well.

DUI Hit and Run. He hit me as I was exiting off the freeway, then rammed me again as he took off. Did chase him down.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

I like the badge delete and that door panel. Is the fabric something from a store?

Ever feel small?? Sure seems like every other vehicle in your pics are trucks/SUVs.

I got the fabric from someone on this board several years back. He was selling Recaro material. The guy who installed it on the inserts said he thought it was headliner material.

And yes, I feel tiny every time I park there. It is a plumbing business next door and I think it is a requirement to drive a large PU or SUV to work there.
