In due time!! I had no idea how much crap I caused to myself doing the SEMA thrash!!! We have basically had to blow apart the entire car. Got a couple of pieces going in the booth this weekend for repairs from some trailer damage on the way home from SEMA. plus its been damn hard to work when its 20 degrees in the shop at night!! I live in the south cause its supposed to be warm

Sounds like progress! Cool! Are you doing a full repaint or just some touch up?

Trailer damage? What's this? I didn't hear anything about that!

I know of a couple other spots that needed tuned up....but, what happened in the trailer?

If anyon ever questions how bad of a road I-40 is? I have a story. On the return trip from SEMA , we actaully snapped the shaft on a front coilover, which allowed the tire to contact the fender. Not that much damage, just a small crack in the paint and a little wave at the fender edge. Easy 3 hour fix. You really have to pay attention to know its there. Plus we got the burn through on the a-pillar and some touch up spots here and there.

Sounds to me like you've got an "issue" with the front suspension if you managed to snap a coilover shaft while TRAILERING... I've seen bad wrecks with A arms and all manor of carnage and haven't seen that kind of damage.

We not a 100% sure what happened with the coilover. Everything in the suspension is correct. WE had the shock going back, but i was sitting in my shipping dept here at work last week, when the entire buidling caught on fire and burnt!! So lost it to the fire. WE thank we know what happened but not to sure.
