Great thread !

Beers4all, I love the black twists on Blue. I had been considering doing this with my extra set of twists, but wasn't sure how it would look. I may have to do it now for my winter wheels !

My car is in the shop, and I am traveling for work for the next week. I should have pics of mine when I return and will resurrect this thread to post them if needed !

Default Pics -- finally!

Well the work week is over (amen) and the yard and pool have been tended to for the day, so now I finally have some time to post some pics of my car in mid-operation.

(I hope these pics come through, it took a couple iterations to get the hotlinks right on my computer)

Before. Notice the gouge in the bumper between the license plate and the fog light.



Closeup on the EVIL rust forming at the corners of my front windshield



At Bodymotion! Some assembly required.



I shot this trying to get a photo of the panel after they'd pulled a dent out of it, but now I just like it. The Pirelli sign reflected in the body is a nice touch.



They repaired my bumper gouge plus about 30 others.



That's it for now. According to my most recent update, they have finished repainting, and are installing the windshields. After that it goes to the mechanic for regular service, then to the detail shop for a full exterior detail, then I get it back. I can't wait!!

- Dave

Dave,

What color blue is your car? Please let me know how you feel about the workmanship after it is done (particularly the color match!). I will probably be having some repairs done myself this winter and need to find a shop.

It's Ocean Blue -- stay tuned for the exciting conclusion of "Dave has bodywork done."

The set came out of a wreck and I paid dearly for them. In retrospect, I think they are well worth it. The sport seats are quite comfortable as DD and help to keep me in on those rare days on the track . . .
