Title: The Mark VII is wearing new paint
Post by: 5.0 tbird on February 18, 2008, 06:55:47 PM
My idiot friend backed into my car and took out the pass door and a little of the rear quarter the day after Christmas when he was backing out of the garage. So I decided to take all of the insurance money and saved up to just get the whole car repainted. I took it in for bodywork and paint on the 4th and got it back on the 15th. I had them repaint it the stock Light Titanium Pearl Metallic, and it virtually looks as good as new. I just have to get some new dew wipes and touch up the black on the mouldings. Well, anyways on to the pics: :hick:

Thanks, I was actually planning on having the car repainted at some point, but when it got hit I haggled with the insurance company and put the money back until I could save up to have the whole car redone ASAP.
