AHHH!!! I hate some places
You know that anxious feeling you get when you are without your car for a while when it is getting body work done or paint work. Well my car was hit in the drivers side door my a dork in a Suburban. The car had only been in the body shop for 2 weeks but it felt like forever. I have a whole mess of mods that I was waiting to do when it got back. Well I get the car and at first it think it looks great. Sure enough they did a really crappy job. My mirror vibrates and gives like a 1/4 of an inch back and forth so when the car is idling in looks like I must have the bass cranking. They are like... oh we got pissed that it took so long to mount your door that we didnt check the mirror. Anyway... My point to this post is...
For any of you Maryland folks, do you know of any good body shops. Ones that YOU would trust your car with. I need some other stuff done. Also paint shops. I was happy to get the car back though. The mirror is a minor fix. I have to get the tint redone cause the F'ed that all up too. I did get a couple things done. I modified the console. It used to light up yellow since it was a 91. I redid it to light up blue. I attached a pic. Not the best but I was happy... Did some other lighting and cosmetic thing. Thanks if you can give me any leads on shops....

I not so worried about the time factor. It is the bad job they did in general. I am really just looking for another body shop when they are done fixing it.
