The one thing i dont want to do is try to tackle a job like this and end up with a car that is misaligned and be out thousands of dallars!
I think that leads to questions of the level of perfection you desire. A person who has experience in a trade like bodywork and has the eye and talent is going to be able to do a better job than you can and in less time. The question becomes how "perfect" do you expect the car to be?
