The front bumper has that attached to it. I told them they obviously dont need to paint that part. You can see the hole where the filter will be.

Last piece is getting final prime! And they started painting. Im crossing my fingers for the end of next week, Ill get it back.

more updates

Almost forgot to let them know to cut the bottom of the front bumper, that way the oil drain bolt can be reached. Everything else is shaping up. Should get the car back on friday or next monday/tuesday

given them $4k as of last week. I told them my budget so we'll see how close they get.

Two shop owners with over 50 years experience between them, its not cheap.

Far less than the laughable amount "Magnum Collision" in Marietta Ga. quoted me, $18-20k

It might come to around $8k. I got them to repaint quite a bit of the car and do some custom work, no required mind you, but I wanted it done.

Will be a totally different car after you are done, excited for you!

If I can get it into my driveway safely

I knew the amuse front was going to make it about 1/2" lower but I forgot about the added length from the bumper as well as the splitter.

Ill have to, as they say "Send it" I suppose...at .5mph and at a nice HARD angle.

Ill be getting a proper photoshoot later in the month as well.
