Going to paint... again
After one crappy paint job, 2 paint shops and a whole lot of body panel replacement, my car is finally going to the paint booth, again. This should be the last time for a very long time. I have confidence in this shop. Besides, there isn't anything "unknown" under this paint to make it bubble after 2 weeks.
I can't wait to see it, let alone drive it when I get home. My wife has been awesome, going to the shop every few days and taking pictures for me, updating me on the progress. On Monday they were pulling the fenders, doors, hood and trunk lid off and doing the final guide coat, smoothing out any imperfections in the panels. They have been taking thier time doing that and getting it in primer and today it should go in for it's first coat of paint.
On another note, those of you who know my story with the first shop will be happy to hear that my wife will also be going to small claims court mediation on the 22nd of this month to recoup some of our money. After we win the suite, I will disclose the shop's info so no one will make that mistake too...

I haven't been on in awhile however I do remember your post and the problems you ran into. I hope this time round goes much better for you! Good luck with the paint and the small claims.
Thanks... My wife is hoping to drive the car-finished- to the court house... God I'd love to be there when she sees the owner of the shop. "Looky here, this is what a QUALITY paint job looks like!" LOL... I love that woman.
