its fixed now and im getting a cat-back system for free. and hes looking to see if he can find me a rear lip for cheaper than $420 and he would have it painted and the whole thing. so in the next couple weeks i wont have my car very much, between going to the dealer and the exhaust shop..

i talked to ROCK and the whole evo9 rear bumper is $279. i just called the shop and he said he is gonna find something cheaper. he thinks that just making the carbon fiber heat shield will make me happy. i told him absolutly not, the rear skirt needs to be replaced and i will put my carbon heat shield on the replaced one.

he said he will find somethign that looks good for cheaper. honestly, i have looked and cant find anything cheaper for a FULL BUMPER for 279. not just the skirt piece.

lol... there isnt much to LOOK for, that is CHEAPER and BETTER. I mean, I would rather have my part last a long time, and look very decent(aka RRM Evo9 Bumper) than a "good" looking part thats crap quality. Step your foot down man... they ****ed up

im about to tell him tis either the stock rear skirt or that rear bumper, he can pick which one, but i pick the shop it gets painted at because i know some people that do *****!n work.

i told my mom about this whole thing, since her name is on the car too shes going down to their shop monday and raising hell, it should be fun to see, we all know when a mom gets mad move out of the way

thats the reason it burnt the bumper. they didnt put enough hangers on the exhaust so it moved itself.

Wow, man that sucks. Thank goodness your mechanic is cool about it. Not like he has a choice though.
