Default Car out of body shop... Pics

After a minor hit on the driver door while parked, I had my body completely fixed and repainted- shaved the emblems as well. Here are a few pics. The whole bodywork process is shown in the link- about 20 pics. For those that want to look- Enjoy!




Mid way through the shop...

The rest of the pics are at:

looks good, process looks very professional
just wondering why you decided to keep the side moldings, especially since they were pulled during prep work
looks good though, no emblems is sexy

The mouldings stayed on just for protection- the car picked up a lot of door dings since I got it and now that it's straight again I want to keep it that way as long as possible! But yeah, it would look smoother without them.

Wouldn't you know it- about a week after it was out of the shop someone got a little too close and scratched it!!! bastards.
