Just got my car back from paint....

Got a box of interior parts and a box of screws. Anyone wanna help me put her back together? She's going back into the shop for a couple days next week for a ding repair (that I'm not paying for) and a final cut and buff, but I have a whole bunch of parts and would like some sort of a reference. If you've done T-Top weatherstripping, I will buy beer and pizza.

Re: Just got my car back from paint....

So my painter finally finished that door ding on Friday, and now he's in a hurry for me to get the car out of his shop. Should had it done a month ago, bub. Are you still available? Would we be able to do the install at your place, cause I live at an apartment complex, and they're kinda sticklers about people working on their cars in the parking lot.

Thanks for the help.

Re: Just got my car back from paint....

I got it done at an independent shop. The body work is perfect, but the paint is so so. Great materials, good workmanship, but it was a poor shop, and they painted the hood flat, so it has a few imperfections in it. It took me a while to pick it up, and the guy left it outside in the rain with no tops on it, so I'm kinda pissed at the guy, and won't send any more business his way. Thank god I POR-15'd the floors.
