Looks great. Congrats on bringing your car back. I remember the day you first posted about being swiped...it did not look so good. I am glad you found the parts and it came out so nice. I really liked your car before the crash...and still do today

Thanks guys...not totaled no. I only ended up paying right $1k...for the repaint, out of my own pocket..repaint, rid all the dings/dents...not too bad. It's not perfect, but it's better than it was even before the accident.

Looks like new again.

KAHruzer · 07-05-08, 11:11 AM

Looks really nice. Would like to know more details.

Did they replace door/fender parts or reshape?
Was the entire car painted?
Were the door hinges, or the door post bent?
Was the wheel/suspension affected?

Ophidian · 07-05-08, 01:06 PM

The door and fender I found off a donor car in a junkyard. The door was ok but the fender was bowed. He reshaped the fender to fit and the door and fender fit great. Only thing that wasn't painted is the red below the side moldings and the lower part of the bumper covers. Door hinges and door post not bent. No wheel or suspension affected...I got lucky yes.
