Default Very Impressed

Seriously, not sure if you guys remember all correctly for those who've seen my car. But wow did this guy do a great job...
I didn't think it would come out anywhere close to how good he did.

It still needs to be painted, but god the rear fender was sunken in and rounded off badly, with dings all around from trying to bang it out so my rear tire wouldnt rub.

front fender all scraped slightly pushed in, door sagging horridly bad.
ground effect sagging almost comming loose due to rust on its lip where it connects.

It looks just perfect, like nothing ever happened.
Yea it still needs paint, but I can't say how much I just wanna clear my small bank account for this guy.
If anyone needs any body work done give me a buzz.
I'll see if he wants more work. He's a retired autobody repair man, lets say in his 50's?
But so far he does GREAT! work cheap.
The pricing on my car to get the driver side fixed was going to cost me an upwards of $4,000.00
He's doing it for 1/4 of that, and half is only to cover paint.
He was in need of a little cash too at the time so that helps both of us.

Dont know just very excited my car is almost back in great shape.

Like I said tho, if anyone of you guys need work done in the area. Just give me a PM and i'll see if he wants more work.
He CANT paint whole cars, because hes limited to space and doesnt have the room in his garage.
But odds and ends like bumpers, doors, fenders etc im sure he can do easily.
He just doesnt have the paint in stock so itll be a week before any painting gets done.

Really cant stress enough that im very happy to have my car back, in this condition.

BTW who's going wednesday?

No one catches me!

And somewhere in a post in this section says it all
but ill sum it up for ya.

A while back I was being careless after washing my car, back end slid out from behind me due to wet tires and i scraped a wall in like a 10' wide alley
****ed up my corner light, bumper,front fender, door,rear fender, and slight scraping on the rims.
This all was on the driver side.

Needlesstosay I was horribly pissed about it, but cooled down after a couple days.

Bought a new set of headlights, and some black nail polish.
painted over everything that was showing thru, and stained with the white wall.
and it didnt look so bad at all.
Which is why you didnt really notice.

But now its repaired, a little weird color combination at the moment.
But! repaired
Getting painted next weekend and I can't wait !!
