So some of you remember my saga with bodyshop that totally messed up my driver side rear 1/4 last year. Well, after 7 months argueing with bodyshop and insurance company, looks like I'm at the dead end
So I now have to make a dicision as to what to do.
I can take out another 4 or 5 year loan, and get may be S197, look for low milege Cobra, or may be Mach1. Or get someting totally different - like S2000, 350Z, or even C-5 Vette. and start over from scratch(well, some of my stuff can be transfered if i go with Cobra, and almost all can be reused if I get Mach1(less LT)
But any of those would mean sign away 4 to 5 years of my life paying $500~$600+/month, and I donno if I want to do that again, specially when i got less then year left on my GT now(stinkin 5 year lone
Another alternitive is to get small loan - like may be $4000~$5000 loan, and replace 1/4 panel(take out probramatic area completely), and do few other thing while im at it, like replace my hood, fix all of paint brimishes, replace my saggin Sportline, or even completely ditch Roush look and replace it with Saleen kit, etc...
But thats all depends on what it takes to replace rear 1/4 panel right. ANy bodyshop can replace 1/4, but I understand its time consuming, and expensive process, and your open your car to potential issue like water leaking inside of 1/4 causing rust from inside out.
Is there anyone who replaced rear 1/4 panel on our car here? What/how is that done, and how long it takes, and most importantly, what does it cost to do it right?
ANy ideas?
