Re: Mercy.......

"Total bill will be $3700".

Look at that gloss. Did the end product still fall in at this price? Do you fell you got what you paid for? Or, did this exceed your expectations?

Re: Mercy.......

Looks awesome. I bet you stare at her for hours before you go to sleep. LOL. Definitely need to have a GTG to show her for sho....



And you BULLYDAWG,
Let me tell you an ancient Chinese secret....NEVER SAY "I'M BROKE". You keep telling yourself and saying you're broke then you will always be broke. If you keep telling yourself negative things then you are attracting negative to yourself. Instead of saying "I'm broke, I can't afford it" say "I will have the money and I will buy it". You see where I'm getting to? Now go practice that grasshopper......peace.

Re: Mercy.......

What a beauty. You seem to be pretty meticulous about work on your car, so if you're pleased, I'm sure they did a good job.

That's for all door dings, removal and re-installation of all body panels and parts except the doors, 2 stage PPG factory red, black headlight buckets, door jambs, and partial under hood to cover up the green fenders.
It will also be getting black heritage stripes (vinyl) applied.
Where are the stripes?
Did they do anything else other than listed?
Was the turnaround about 10 days?

Great motivation to your fellow 3rd genners to see a nice result. I'm curious to see what they would charge for what I want done around here and will then get a quote from Concord to compare.

Let me tell you an ancient Chinese secret....NEVER SAY "I'M BROKE". You keep telling yourself and saying you're broke then you will always be broke. If you keep telling yourself negative things then you are attracting negative to yourself.
It's called "The Law of Attraction". Bennie is right! Practice positive energy and it will be reciprocated 10 fold.

Re: Mercy.......

Haha, thanks bennie. I will try that. I am going to be leaving for the Air Force in March, so I WILL have money... I need to get a job in the meanwhile and get me some money!

And it does look good in the pictures with a very quick turnaround time.

New paint should be allowed to breathe & fully cure, before applying any vinyl graphics. Not just "next day graphics".
