really depends on the body shop... visit it frequently and check up on them... but also let them know to take their time.

Yeah I'll be there! Also, I dont know how hard the white is to match but i know they had to special order my paint from Europe because they couldnt get a match. I'll give you the guy that did mine if you need it hes awesome and best in the area. Talk to you on Sunday about it.

They have the best rep, and are also guaranteed by the insurance companies.
Let them know Brett sent you. They also are very good with fixing scratches and nicks.

I had the stock USDM Lancer Evolution badge. Since the accident I got a brand new trunk. Since i was eventually going to put the EDM Evolution VIII badge on any way I Figured might as well get it now and have them do it, this way it will save me the trouble of taking the old stuff off. I brought it to the shop, told them exactly how to do it, and wrote it out so they didnt forget and they did it. I figured they have the most expierence with badges since they are always putting them on cars.

maybe its the angle or the pic, but the trunk color looks way off from the bumper and quarter panel color. Its incredibly difficult to match metallic paints.
