1) Yes it's Sharp...... Lou seems like a good guy, they do quality work, awesome guaranty. Also got a couple of good recommendations as well. What do you think of him???

2) I ride a lot up your way, I think I was on Bonner sat. We leave from Kelsey and Old Barrington rd. Head over to Rawson bridge, past Rez's and the day care (used to be a fire station), then up across 176. We turned right at the bottom of the hill and went over to the access road on the west side of 12, zig-zagged around to Barreville rd. through McHenry, through Bull Valley and up to Hebron. Just a little 90 bike mile ride.

Damn thats alot of bikeing, and Yes lou is an awsome guy. I had them do my sub frame connectors and someother little prep stuff for me not to long ago. Actually i have to bring my hood there and have then spray another coat of sealer on it. I new I had seen that place before. Thats funny. If you dont mind me aking, how much are they charging you for paint? You could p.m. me if you dont want to post it or dont want to say at all

The pillars from the front window to the roof were just starting to rust and bubble the paint (A pillar I think). I had a 87 that was really bad. What are C pillars?
