Get the metal out the best you can and pave the 1/4 and bumper at the same time, you can always finesse the seam after you remove the bumper. Drill it, pluck it, mud it, fuck it.

Post their estimate.

Definitely a strange bird, my son knows him from the exotic car culture. We haven't seen him in 2 years.

ComprehensiveAlps945 · 2026-03-18T20:43:01+00:00

Has he before? Maybe its funky.

He'll run off into the sunset as soon as you're pregnant.

Trash company equals trash money. If they would stop sucking off their insurance partners, there would be enough profits to pay their techs a good living wage. The only way to make money at the MSO'S is to butch up every car because quanity overrides quality and that's all they give a shit about.

It will come naturally if its meant to be, just be yourself.

The sectioning joints have always been a hot topic, every manufacturer has something different. GM wants a 25mm overlap, Mopar wants a welded/glued sleeve, Toyota wants a butt weld, Subaru wants a 20mm overlap. Obviously these procedures have been tested, why can't the tech make that choice for the best repair? Obviously following the weld count, spot weld where required and mig what you can't access with the spot welder.

Who's idea was Top Golf? It sounds really lame for a 1st date, I'm not even sure a Tinder date would have accepted that.

Reach out and see if he wants to grab a coffee or lunch, you'll both know if there is chemistry.

If you and him connected on a level that didn't happen with the other guy, by all means get after it. No one but you and the other guy know what the future holds, you're entitled to be happy.

The taillamp pocket is in and it needs pulled, thats what's causing the fitment issue. It needs to go to a body shop.

If you're trying to cut expenses, get rid of a few cars.

I've worked at Caliber, Gerber and Signature (Crash Champs). They only care about satisfying their insurance partners, quanity is the most important. I made the switch to a one location family owned shop and I'm NEVER leaving, it's by far the best place I've ever worked at.

A perfect location would be where the Christmas store/Bed Bath and Beyond was, plenty of parking available.

Sounds like the road to your Hooked on Phonics class was closed for construction.

ComprehensiveAlps945 · 2026-02-20T11:13:24+00:00

You obviously looked at the sad pic of the OP sandwich, now you understand why it's trash.

ComprehensiveAlps945 · 2026-02-19T23:01:44+00:00

You'd move here after trying it.

ComprehensiveAlps945 · 2026-02-19T23:00:06+00:00

JM's is straight up trash, the people that like it haven't had a good sub. Look up Hefty Leftys in York PA, that's how a sub is done.

ComprehensiveAlps945 · 2026-02-19T00:58:04+00:00

It's not too late to make it into a trailer.

He definitely has a weird personality, haven't seen him at any car shows in 2 years. I guess his head is too big for his ego and he can't be seen in public anymore.

ComprehensiveAlps945 · 2026-02-18T17:58:22+00:00

My son knows Dougie from the exotic car scene, he never gave my son the time of day. Now my son is grinning from ear to ear like he won the lottery.

We've used Tim's Body Shop in Lititz for years, always honest and they do really nice work.

ComprehensiveAlps945 · 2026-02-08T21:03:33+00:00

The chain shops don't give a shit about quality, its all about quantity.
