yup, everything's good. didn't have to pay a dime. got the car back wednesday. oh how i missed that VTEC. since i got it back, it seems the car pulls a bit harder now too. or maybe i just missed driving it. :vtec:
be careful about waxing it. Usualy with fresh paint you need to wait 6 months to do anything but wash it. Thats what i was told last time I got a car outta the body shop. The paint hasnt completely hardend...or something to that effect.
sorry about that.....thats suck...hope you get your funds to fix it
Sorry to hear about your car. But I am glad you got it back. Can't wait to see you at the next meet.Pukuyo said:yup, everything's good. didn't have to pay a dime. got the car back wednesday. oh how i missed that VTEC. since i got it back, it seems the car pulls a bit harder now too. or maybe i just missed driving it. :vtec:
Hmm it is my understanding that it takes 4 weeks (1month) for the paint to properly cure[sp]. After 4 weeks you should be fine to wax.anavrin351 said:be careful about waxing it.

If it was done properly, it should be cured already - no special treatment to the paint/clear after the vehicle is returned to you. Besides, most body shops have lifetime warranty. If you paint fades/peels/etc, they have to repaint it for you.
yup, i'll be in for sure at that next crazy big meet. i already missed the last few ones.HabaneroGuy said:Sorry to hear about your car. But I am glad you got it back. Can't wait to see you at the next meet.
yup, i got lifetime warranty for the work done by the shop (kirmac). but even if i do want to wax it, i won't, the weather isn't that great to do it yet.marc-o-lishuz said:If it was done properly, it should be cured already - no special treatment to the paint/clear after the vehicle is returned to you.
