oh man would that suck. but u know what DO NOT settle until u are completely satisfied... it might take years but.....well i am sure u know where to draw the line. the right body shop will take care of ya and do amazing work. i stopped by every other day on my way to work, seeing as i drove by the body shop every day, and watched the progress of the car. simply amazing work they did. if i could hook my cell phone up to the computer to show u the pictures u would be amazed. the last couple of days i didnt go look at it just to see what kind of wonders they could make with the paint, and damn i wasnt disappointed. just remember u also have ur insurance company to fight for ya also
