Default Lil Deuce reconstruction surgery

Back from the Body shop. Damages where $656.00

Buff out front bumper
Replace upper grille
Repaint hood (with my mod ideas)

Jeff said my mod Ideas were kool and do-able and within the confines of the insurance.

I take it back in Friday to talk with the painter personally about my ideas on the hood mod and leave the Deuce with them at that time.

Will take three days to complete so am looking at August 30th or 31st to get her back home.


She will look different with her fix and new mods... will post pics when she is done.

Your car looks great in person! I saw it while walking down Woodward on Saturday at the cruise. I tried running and catching up and talking to you, but you were driving and there were to many people for me to catch up. You were only 5-10 mph but still haha.

That is crazy that the little bit of damage you have is almost 700 dollars. And then people wonder why we are all so cautious about where we park.

"just a Car"
Going to slug the next person that says that to me "verbaly not physically"

Ya repairs done right are not cheap.....Jeff the estimator likes the car and wants it done right too. Besides i got plugs for Mason Auto Body on my cardomain page he shows customers my car pics for an example of their work. It is good to know a good body shop for sure.
