Good luck on the body shop. I looked all over before I found one that would do mine the right way. Most body shops in NJ don't want to paint a whole car. They make more fixing insurance collisions. The place that did mine took it in november and gave it back in may I think. I'll see if they are interested in doing another one if you want.

As far as interior resto, if you find a good one, let me know.

do you have before and after pics?

I dont have a shop but as long as there is no actual stitching work i would be willing to work something out with you to do your interior over.pretty handy with that type of deal,just totally redid my own car from top to bottom pretty much,paints next

well, not so good pics of before(I'll look for more when I get home from work)

and current(but now I have ponys instead of the 10 holes)

Pictures don't do the body work justice. There is not a ripple or wave in the car.

And here's a couple of shots of it under the knife.

Well, I got 2 used doors with no rust from california for $150, a new hood and trunk for I think about $250, new body moldings from latemodelrestoration.com, and the paint and body work came in a little under 4500 with the subframe connecters being welded in too. I suspect it would have been more if I was in a rush. All in all, I feel I got a lot more than I paid for. The paint looks better than my neighbor's 06 gt.
