I'm considering selling mine... again. Too many problems and I don't drive it that much (even when I do have it :D) I just can't find a car that would serve as a good substitute.
Blue, did you get everything worked out? I'm still trying to get my windshield. He has been saying he would get it for over 3 weeks now, but hasn't made a call.

Well.... not really. I kinda need my car during the week, so it's hard for me to just "drop it off" at Martin's shop. These are the things that it needs done.
Tail Light leaks water (still)
Car Alignment (not too bad... but still needs it)
Gas Lid problems (some missing rubber part?)
Appearance package needs install.
Wing hasn't been ordered
Front lip hasn't been ordered
Complete Buffing Job...
My battery cover was broken by the guy who worked on my car, he needs to replace it.
etc., etc.,
The car drives fine (except for the alignment) so it's pretty much done.
There are other little details that need to be done but I can't think of all of them right now.

that's seem like a lot things that still need to be done. I know I could have taken my car somewhere else and got lots of mods done. But I was more worried about it getting fixed correctly. Also it is a lot easier to complain to a dealer if something is wrong. At least in my opinion. Before the car was wrecked I had just purchased a front air dam, rear aero's, and ms sides. So now I'll just let the shop install all the items.

Yeah, I'm still having some problems too. He buffed the car and it looked great. Now swirl marks are coming back through, my fenderwells are all missing (except 1), my windshield hasn't been replaced, Rear bumper has overspray...
I know the feeling. I callled last week and never got a response.

Yeah I know
The thing is that I've gone up there twice before calling him and he wasn't even there. It's quite far for me to make a senseless trip. Especially with these gas prices!!! :o

Well, I finally drove over there yesterday. It's real far for me when he's not there. He says he'll finish my car (except the windshield) early next week. It seems he has 4 bays now. He has joined with some used car seller.
