dude i would wheel and deal with those guys. tell them that you have a guy that'll do all the work necessary and paint it for $500. if they can match it, they have your business.

powerz

lol a lifetime garantee meaning against what pealing off?all shops will . and so do i now chips if they say it about that no wonder they are always behind.
dude its kool just say it"you dont trust me to do it" which is kool . hell i would have more respect then that then a bunch of excuses .

Capo's Freak

All these shops screw around and never get things done on time! We should just open our own shop...b/w Powerz and Paolo I think we got everything covered

powerz

agree

rallycobalt06

excuse me...... i think your forgetting someone......

Capo's Freak

well duh you too

powerz

its because of greed they are afraid to run out of work so they over book and over charge.
they tie people up with hopes of when it MAY be done.When I use to take my truck to get worked on I made the give me a set time in writing or money off the bill for every day I had to rent a truck for work .Only the great shops will do that and we have 1 local shop here that does unless it is help up for parts ordered

rallycobalt06

oh, well thanks. but i was thinking of Jon j/k

powerz

I am looking for a small shop to rent near seaford. I want my own bus. again. somthing small low overhead . i know where an old 2 bay garage is but having trouble contacting the owner who lives in florida

lmfao I was thinking wtf you know about cars

The01Cav

My main thing in all honesty. I'm about as lazy as they come. I really don't feel like doing the traveling, plus then I have to go pick up the parts from the shop and i already commited to them.

I saw your paint on the bumper and it looked great no doubt, hell your whole car itself looks great in person. I know that their timing sucks but the work is top notch for sure. When my girlfriend wrecked her focus, they did a great job on that and even replaced some parts that were missing on it when she got it.

If you were located in Dover or somewhere around there, I would have sent them too you like yesterday lol. I did a google maps search and it's almost a 2 hour trip 1 way for getting the parts too ya. I do trust your work no doubt so thats not even a concern. Later down the road I might talk to you about getting my whole car repainted.

I want to get into schooling for doing autobody so that I can start doing this stuff myself instead of having to get someone else too do it lol.

rallycobalt06

hey man, i know alot of stuff about cars and you know that! i've been seriously thinking about getting into my own business, i'd like to run a performance shop and also do car audio, body/paint on the side.

Capo's Freak

ok so you, powerz, jon, larry, and paolo can have your own shop . But seriously Paolos boss is selling his business in a few years and hes first in like to get it

On a happier note...my car is actually done and ready to go I just got off the phone with Exotic Customs...they're doing a photo shoot 2morrow morning then I can go get it wooot! and they are in talks with getting me a sponsorship from PowerBass...sweeeeeeeeet!

The01Cav

That is awesome! Good to hear that it's all done and ready to go. I am thinkin about in a couple years maybe changing the color of my car.

rallycobalt06

ROCK ON!!!! if i get rid of the Cobalt, my next car i'll definately be trying to get sponserships. if not, oh well i can do all the work myself and i have connections everywhere so i'd pay retail or less for everything.

powerz

lets find a place 1/2 way for both and open a shop .

BUT really I am I will keep doing what I do now since that is only 8 days a month till I get enough work to do it full time

Capo's Freak

Thanks guys!

They're really isnt a custom shop in the close DE area since Car V2 closed. Exotic Customs is allllllllll the way in west chester and Kamber Koncepts in Elkton doesn't even have a business lisence...you guys could have a gold mine on your hands. Plus if you combine that with a performance shop **** you'd be set!

rallycobalt06

i'll be giving you a call when i get out of work, i'd like to discuss some things with you.

oh trust me guys....... i have BIG dreams for a shop. i am extremely close to going thru with it all. very very soon i'll be researching my options and checking out the $ part of it.

and like i said before, i have connections EVERYWHERE!!

The01Cav

Yeah really that would be a big hit for sure.

I am kind of thinkin about a color change on my car at some point anyway. Not exactly sure what color I want yet but I want something slightly different. I know there was a member on j-body.org that used a toyota color on his cav called catalina blue which looks really nice. but I feel that I would be imposing on their color then. Another color I was thinkin of is blitz blue from the release series tC.

Catalina Blue


Blitz blue

Capo's Freak

Can I be your receptionist...all I gotta do is show a lil cleavage and people will buy anything...pretty soon we'll be replacing flux capacitors

ooooooooooh I like the blitz blue!

rallycobalt06

is that even possible? sorry i had to. yea i have no problem with you has the receptionist

both blues are awesome looking..... i do like that cavy tho, very clean looking.

powerz

lol we can get them off ebay

The01Cav

Yeah I am kinda feeling the Catalina blue, it's a "safe" color that would hide alot of imperfections like scratches and what not.

Powerz What would you charge to spray my whole car in catalina blue?

Capo's Freak

wow those are expensive! It would be cool to see someone incorporate that into a show display tho...that would be bad ass

powerz

do u want the engine bay blue also because to remove the engine is costly.thats why so many repainted car do black undr\er the hood

my bumper is now done (well drying)

Capo's Freak

haha nope I don't think so
