For those of you who were following my "Lost a fight with an F250" thread you'll know what this is about, and for those of you that are new, check this out:
"Lost a fight with an F250"

This is my car the day I got her back from the shop. Granted it's been a few weeks, but it took me forever to get the pictures on a CD so I could post em' here. My car looks better than it EVER has! The money that they gave me for the repairs was only supposed to cover a new fender, paint for the fender, and enough paint to get to the corner of my nose. They weren't going to paint the whole front bumper (cuz' they weren't supposed to) but it turns out the guy doing the painting was a Camaro enthusiast! He told me when I picked up my car that he saw the condition of the paint on the nose and just couldn't leave it like that. They painted the rest of it for FREE!!

Guess you could say I'm GLAD he hit my car! :lala:

 

Another...

 

One more...

 

awesome.

 

nice to see its fixed again. They didnt issue the car a salvage title did they?

 

looks good, i wish everyone was as friendly in shops, "hey btw i droped a 350 in your car while it was here all weekend"

 

Looks great man! See there are some good people in this world. Glad to see that Bruce is back on the road.

 

Sans overexposure, very nice!:

 

car looooks greaat!

 

those new headlights give it a nice clean look. i lvoe it. ithink im gonna get some new ones so they can sparkle like urs

 

Thanks for all the great compliments. Yeah those new headlights made a huge difference in not only the way my car looks, but I can see a lot better at night too! I'll be re-doing my turn signal lights really soon so they match the headlights

Soon I'll be getting an SS hood for my car as well. I may just be taking it back to that shop to see if they can paint it for me...

nolanr0413: Nope! Title still nice and clean!

Thanks! The camera I got is one of the APS camera's ($275 3 years ago, got mine for $9 with 3 rolls of film) and it kinda sucks. I REALLY need to invest in a digital...

 

that's awesome you got your car back!

 

The film is what sucks. It was probably 400 or 800 speed and kinda old by the looks of it. Try a new roll of 100 speed film when you're outside in the sun, you'll get much better results.

 

Your right, 3 year old 400 speed. You know your photogrophy!

 

Three years at a MotoPhoto.

It's kinda hard to tell in these pictures, but does the paint match up with the rest of the car? It looks like he did a good job coverage-wise.

 

The paint matches up PERFECTLY. He actually painted about 7-8" into the pass. side door and you can not even tell its different paint. No line no nothing. I was seriously in tears when I first saw it it was so beautiful!

that is awsome

 

car looks good, but how about instead of mods like a SS hood you get some insurance...

 

What color silver is that?

 

Photoshop-Corrected-For-Overexposure Silver. It's a custom mix.

I wouldn't trust these pictures for color accuracy; they probably don't represent the actual car very well.

 

lol, the color is Gun-Metal Grey. It's the original factory color. Only given to 2,787 camaros in 1990 . When I have this thing all nice and washed in the middle of the day it just down right shines. This picture is a lot more clear, but still you'd have to see it in person...

 

Nice, that new film is doing its job.

 

Thats actually a 1.9mp digital picture from back in November down in Tucson for the S/W Region Gathering. Thats when I still had oxidized side mirrors, front nose, and spoiler. Yeah, she's a lot perdier now...
