Met a few of the employees that worked there when Dave and I went over there. Was totally not impressed with the one dudes attitude, and the actual “work area” seemed pretty rinky-dink. I ran in to an old friend getting his plastics for his bike painted. I’ll be letting him and anyone else who wants to know… Absolute bullshit. ---

new side skirts came in yesterday.

I was told by the bodyshop that the rust had started forming under the filler ont eh roof and that the filler would have to be stripped. I went up to the new bodyshop today and took some pictures of the rust damage after the filler had been stripped off.I had an estimate written for fixing the roof. I then went down to paintworx collison center and approached the owner with the paper work. He then told me to get lost and to see his lawyer. Pictures of the damage. ![http://img691.imageshack.us/img691/1049/img2764h.jpg](http://img691.imageshack.us/img691/1049/img2764h.jpg) ![http://img31.imageshack.us/img31/5403/img2763l.jpg](http://img31.imageshack.us/img31/5403/img2763l.jpg) ![http://img704.imageshack.us/img704/488/img2762b.jpg](http://img704.imageshack.us/img704/488/img2762b.jpg) ![http://img706.imageshack.us/img706/2963/img2761s.jpg](http://img706.imageshack.us/img706/2963/img2761s.jpg) ![http://img121.imageshack.us/img121/6755/img2760n.jpg](http://img121.imageshack.us/img121/6755/img2760n.jpg) ![http://img717.imageshack.us/img717/4696/img2758z.jpg](http://img717.imageshack.us/img717/4696/img2758z.jpg) ---
