George did an outstanding job after the scuff and wipe down. This paint looks great and it hasn't been scuffed and buffed yet.

That is looking great! Really looking forward to seeing your car again. Your body shop is really doing a great job. That is going to look way better than new when it's done.
 
Paul-

Looks beautiful, I'm impressed! Also, obviously you have a good working relationship with those guys - I think they would have chased me out as soon as I tried to put back on the license plate and badges in the paint room..

I think he missed a spot, see there over on the right. Just kidding, looks good. I hope someone runs into my Mini soon so I can get new paint.

Those were left on when I drove it in to be fixed. They just haven't gotten around to painting the rear panel yet. It may not get painted on this go around because it was done four years ago because the original paint was all faded.

But I have a feeling that they'll want to do it.

On one hand, I thank you Shannon.

I'm not sure about the other though.............
 
Very sexy! I think I need to change my pants after those photos.

Very sexy indeed...doesn't Basil have a policy about posting pornographic images? If you keep posting this sort of thing your going to get yourself banned!
 
Hi Paul,

"VEEERRRRYYY" nice indeed!!!

Russ
 
Thanks all. Next pics will probably be when all back together later this week with the new mirrors installed and new 16" X 7" Konig wheels & Falken 205/60/16" tires. They were ordered in late July and arrived the Monday after the accident.

Dash pad will be going in tomorrow, so if I can get any of that work, I'll add those in.
 
Paul, are you working at all during this ordeal. seems to be spending the whole day at the shop takin pictures.
 
Yeah Don, I'm working. I have to pay for this ever growing project, so I'm definitely working. I just stop at lunch or in the evenings on the days that I'm in town because they work until about 6:00PM.
 
Paul, will you share with us the total cost of the project, how much the insurance paid and how much extra you paid? Or is that personal? I can understand if this cannot be shared.
 
Final tally is far from in yet. Films at 11..............
