Yeah.. that :D

He said he could get it... but I doubt it will be on when i get it "supposedly" tomorrow.

 

Got my car back last night. Looks pretty good. I have to take it back for some
"tweaking" and to fix a few little things they forgot.

Happy to have my car back! Yay!

 

LOL...I knew you would, Martin called me for your number :D Glad you got it back man!

 

Lol, Martin called me too, but he hung up when I answered. :confuesd:

 

u must be confused lol... u mispelled it! :D (just messing with ya)
Yeah the car looks good. They forgot a few things here and there, and
my tail light has a hole in it or something cuz there's water in it (fishbowl).
The paint came out 98% perfect, and the body is just as good.

I hope i'll have it the way i want it by the BBQ

 

I'm happy that you have your car back. So how many miles have you put on it in these 24 hrs? :p

 

Not that many.

I drove it from Martin's home last night... and today I went to Arlington and back..
so maybe 50 miles or so.

I notice that the GREDDY exhaust is really noisy when the car is cold... it sounds like it's vibrating or almost rattling. I'll have u guys listen to it on Tuesday. See what u guys think.

 

Lol, it sounds loud b/c you're used to stock. I bet it's normal, but we'll take a look on Tues.

 

No... it actually sounds really bad. You'll see.

 

OK, I finally had time to take it to Martin. He had his guy adjust a few things (trunk lid alignment, wheel cover thingy, gas door opens again,) and most of all.... Exhaust is fixed!

The damn exhaust was put on but never screwed where the midpipe and the exhaust meet. It was actually only being held by the rubber and hooks! The springs and nuts were
put on and now it sounds very nice! :D So... I'm happy for now.

Next on the list.... Tail light replaced, Rebuff the car, and sooner or later get my wing, appearance package, and my burnout lip.

 

omg doode!! im so sorry man, i got in a lil accident too, n i thot mine was bad no offense but ur not alone, my 8 has been in the shop for a lil over a week, n i hate it! i miss it soo much

glad to know that ur ok n no one was hurt, u and ur 8 are in my prayers, good luck man i hope that ere thing works out and ur 8 gets back to you

 

can't wait to see it when it is done!

 

Well I do have my car ... its alrmost done. Just waiting on a few extra parts.
Sorry about your car. Hope you get it back soon.

 

Well my 8 was in accident this morning when a tire blew out in Fort Worth. My wife was driving but she is ok, Just a little scared. Having a blow out on 820 would make anyone nervous.

ouch man that's terrible. Glad everyone was ok.

 

thanks! Just think I just purchased a front air dam, ms sides, rear aero's, and a spoiler. I was supposed to get them installed this past weekend, but something came up.

 

Wow, glad to hear no one was hurt and that the damage was limited to the rear. Blow outs are scary since you can't control what's going on.

 

Wow, i know you feel like crap right now, but in a month or so you'll get your car back. Hopefully there's no frame or mechanical damage. I know how it feels so keep ur chin up and everything will work out

 

Now you can probably get more mods! :D Got talk to Martin to get it fixed.

 

just be ready to not have your car for a while if you go to martin...

 

Aw man... thats terrible! Glad everyone is okay. Your car looks like it had more
damage than mine maybe? The body looks like it will need a new quarter panel.
The bumper, rims, tires and tail light will be replaced. Not sure about your door and trunk lid from the pictures, but they will need to be aligned. What about the underside of your car? Any serious Damage? Check everything and make a list of everything that you can think of that may have gotten damaged. Don't let ur adjuster forget anything.

Again sorry about your car. Keep us updated.

 

Yea what he said.

If you talk to Martin he'll say what "you want to hear" for him to work on your car. Remember that.

Martin is great at what he does... he just needs better and more help. if he had another Martin he could handle almost any job.

 

I'm just going to let the dealer fix it. Right now the estimate of repairs is at $11000. It has a lot damage to the brake system, and rack and pinion damage.

 

Wow... Sorry to hear that. Mine got up to about $9500 and I thought that was bad. Good luck man.

 

damn....you might want to trade that in on a new one!
