AH the pain..... Talked to the shop today and then went down there after the really Bad news.....

Engine hoist too close to the stang got knocked over as the car was being jacked up by the lift - Just missed my mirror but tore up the Drivers door really bad. Left about a dozen scratches 12-15inches long 1/4 inch wide, and left a slight dent right on the upper crease line. ..amnit:

now they have to get the door fixed & completely repainted....

I hate that kind of Sh#*. I know accidents happen, but why can't they happen with an old Buick or Pinto on the lift or something. It still sucks. Everything can be fixed. Hope they get it going soon for you.

So do I - Freaking had to happen to my car - probably the only incident in their shop for the whole damn year.

On top of this - Add insult to injury - UPS damaged several components in the Supercharger kit during shipping - for example they Crushed the electric water pump and damage a couple other components. JDM is having to emergency ship them out Monday (since their order people are on vacation I have to wait)
..HolyCrap, a three day install has turned into a 2 week nightmare....:damnit:

That sucks dude. Different circumstances but my blower install 7 years ago on my 86GT was fraught with pain and delays too, always some little thing popping up. It'll be worth the wait I'm sure!
