Unhappy Race Rodz strikes again :(

Well, I spoke to Tim and TJ today and I feel absolutely sick to my stomach......

When I got the car back, it was obvious that the quarter panel install Chris did was not good....but now it looks like its worse that we thought originally. Before we thought the "issues" could be tweaked enough to still save the quarter. Today I found out that its probably not gonna be saved and the entire quarter is best off to be replaced.

Tim hasn't sent me the pix yet, but we talked for a long time on the phone. To try and sum it up, the body line on the quarter is about 1/4-1/2 below where it should be at the back near where the bumper fits into the body. I'll post pix when I get them...... I'm dreading seeing them myself

My only option is to live with the pass vs driver side being different and the fit of the bumper being off as well as the spoiler being slightly "tweaked" on one side..... options that I cant live with. I know I'll regret it later if I do.

I've had some depressing times with the car since I got it back, but I would have to say today is the worst so far. Its metal and it can be fixed, but my budget and dream for this car is fading fast.

I cant really even write about this anymore.....
