*Sigh* I am sick of waiting!

By Skyu_Ivy
- Sat Jul 28, 2007 4:42 am #17539 So i have broken down and i am going to take my car to the body shop and get it fixed up! I just can't bare to see it sitting there anymore with the side cut open. I got a quote for 1500-2000 with out the guy actually seeing the car. I am going to keep it white also, to keep the cost down. The guy just did my moms miata. ( I flipped the bugger in the ditch last fall. Guess i was lucky considering i am 6'4" tall and the softtop touched my head when i sat in the car.) It is fairly well done. Couple spots could have been better IMO but you get what you pay for. I don't have the time or place to do any major repairs. So i guess this is for the best. I will take a bunch of pics before and after! I also bought a new front bumper cover and spoon knock off mirrors from ebay.

- Sat Jul 28, 2007 4:03 pm #17585 I will definately be getting before and after. Hopefully i can get some during pictures but i work a lot haha.

I think i am going to order a CF spoiler and blackhousing headlights with amber corners. But i really should wait until my next pay check. I gotta "save for school" haha

I also think i will give it a light coat of sandable primer before it goes in so i can sand it down and see the low spots. Maybe i can slap some filler in. Cause thats one thing i noticed on my moms car. I should get some pictures of that.. i don't know if i have any of it after it was crashed. But it was pretty messed up. haha

Anyways, i am going to be late for work!
