Morning guys,

Josh, as far as doing an install day, try and let me know in advance. This weekend Rose & Jayden will be up at my place, next weekend I'm on the Cape since it's her birthday. I'm going to have to check and see when my next 3/4 day weekend is. Makes it tough for install days. Jay and I are dying to install my springs, just not sure when the hell we're going to do it, it'll probably end up happening either on a Sunday night when I get back from the Cape or during the week sometime.

Paul, you see your boy Leno is putting on a free show in Detroit for all the laid off workers? Even giving a money-back guarantee if you dont like his comedy.

Al Brouduer's FTW!

Bobby and Al are awesome. I think I am going to have them respray my lip/bumper soon.

Bobby sprayed my car and I'm still amazed at how well he matched the metal flake

I have known Al (or rather he has known me) since before I could walk or talk. My father worked there when I was born until I was in H.S. I am having them do my car because A. it's right in Marlboro, B. he has a lot more advanced equipment than my buddys place in Clinton and C. I know he will get my car done in a timely manner and right the first time.

Plus it'll be cool to stop in an see all the guys I haven't seen in years. I'll tell 'em you said hi if you want Paul. What exactly did they do to your car? His receptionist just said she remembered doing another grey Evo.

I thought pauls car looked great for about 2 weeks until all the paint was chipped off. Not sure if it was paint or bad curing but i was not impressed at that.

i think it was just the weather + daily commute on 290. i dont think that would have been different with any other shop. uncured paint in cold weather being driven on the highway and hit with stones and salt is going to lead to excessive chipping.

EDIT:
ajay:
my driver's side fender got hit. they painted the fender, hood, bumper, chin. blended the other fender and driver door.

obv they replaced everything that got damaged (wheel, headlight, bumper, chin)

sure you can tell them i said hi. they recently did my buddies red s60r and have done work on my mom's bmw. i've sent them a little bit of business. i wanna say someone else went there on my suggestion but i cant think of who... i actually found out about the place thru davids. i believe they did his front bumper. they have done quite a few evos. they also did this guy randy's evo. pretty extensive work too. i havent seen it since the work tho.

negative. If the procedure was done correctly this wouldn't have happened after only 2 weeks. Regardless of DD.
