Good question there. I'm not familiar with this. Are they doing a hack job already??

Nah, they just cut the face to assess the damage behind it.
They will trim it all up as they get ready to put the new skin on.
Nothing's hacked yet.

Ugh that pic reminds me of my accident. An old lady hit me and I had similar damge just closer to the door. When I showed up the rear end was on the ground, had a lime green door and a dark blue quater panel. I almosted died. Took them 2 times as long to fix as esitmated (wrong parts ordered, had to get some stuff they thought was fixable). I was so happy when I got it back, you could never tell it was in an accident (save the white lable on the driver side with the car info on it being gone).

Ufffff, I don't even want to think about that
Looks like you got a piece of legend lime on your mustang now

The body shop actually called me today.. told me they couldn't find my wheel lock key. Last I left it in the glovebox, told them to check the center console. They called me about 10 min later, told me it was wrapped in some old clothing and tossed in the trunk!!??? Last place I had someone touch my car was at the Ford stealership replacing my locks. They shouldn't have touched my wheels. Makes me wonder if they did something at the tow yard..

Well, this picture has been in a few posts lol, but just to bring it back home. This is how things are going.. doesn't look too hot right now.
The way things are going, might as well do suspension too LOL.. oh well, funds have become tight and they don't seem to want any additional work.
