I am HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY!!!
Hi Everyone...
I am a thrilled right now!!!!!!!!! I just drove my FAVORITE car in the ENTIRE world back to work right now!
Yep you guessed it! I am back behind he wheel of my MONTE CARLO! wooooooohoooooooo! I swear seriously an AWESOME feeling! And holy crap, once your used to driving a small car with a 4banger all the time, my Monte feels like a boat on wheels with sh*t tons of power. I got on the highway on ramp, and floored it for a power rushing 1st gear down shift, and OMG, I was grinning from one ear to the next. My co-worker was laughing at me when i got the call because he was getting ready to leave, and said not so fast buddy, your *** is stayin, my Monte is ready, and out the door I went. He said he's never seen my *** move so fast! LOL
They did an incredible job! Seriously Incredible! It literally looks better than it did before the accident. Not a single chip in the hood, and the paint is just awesome. Then they totally detailed the car inside and out, including waxing it!
I'm in love, and feel whole again.
I'll be taking it in the VERY NEAR future to get some pictures of it since I never did get any good pictures of it after the RS kit, or new spoiler. Once I get the pics i'll post for everyone to see what i'm looking at, or I should say drooling at right now through the office window!
Oh and the final bill was $7,614.18...I paid only $500!

I'm the same way. When you have to drive someone else's car for a while, it's such a great feeling to get back behind the wheel of your car.
Way to go on getting your Monte back the way you want it.
Now, some up to date pics of your awesome Monte would be really nice!

The monte carlo Gods are smiling on us this week my brother.... I am working on getting the rockchips out of my hood and my dad is going to work on my wrecked quarter panel... NOW if I could get a new battery for my remote and get the damn squealing under the hood to STOP.....

Robyn, a friend of mine didn't feel comfortable changing the battery in his remote himself. He went to a local independant jewelry store. They installed a new battery for him for the cost of the battery. Not much different from changing a watch battery, so it was no big deal for the jeweller.
Of course, you could just get a tech savvy friend to do it for ya also.
