Good to see they're making progress.  Can't wait to see everything completed.  I hope it's done before the meet next weekend.  If not, you can roll with me.

My thought is that it will be..

Got the car back from the shop it looks good aside from two dents in the roof which they missed. They are getting fixed monday as well as a little camber issue in the rear. Have a look at the pics and tell me what you think

Awesome... Sexy Cheesy

glad it's all fixed up

I really really like how your headlights look without that reflector, i've always thought it didnt look that great, yet somehow on your car it seems to just flow.

It's going back on Monday there are some dents in the roof from the twisting force of the accident. The rear of the car has some pretty major camber issues that will also be corrected. That aside i'm pretty happy there are a couple of thing that could be better but, it will never be perfect after a crash like that.

Congrats glad you got it back.  From experience, you may have bent some stuff in teh suspension up with an accident like that, did they replace any parts in the susepnsion?  Could be a bent tie rod, etc.  Any weird noises, creaks or rattles?  

Visually, it looks like it never happened, just want to make sure you get this thing as close to 100%good as possible.

They did not change any suspension parts but, for some stupid reason they only aligned the front. They are going to look at the rear this coming week some thing certinly isn't right, and they are going to look until they find it! There are no noises they had to change the bearing, and hub but, nothing in the suspension.

glad to hear, I wouldn't be surprised if the rear has a bent camber or toe rod, based on where the impact was.

I wouldn't either, we will see what they find. If i'm not mistaken there are no adjustments that can be made to the rear with OEM equipment back there right?

There is a cam bolt on your lower tie rod for minute adjustments actually.  If it's bent, you won't be able to get it back into spec though.

well if they have to replace, try and get them to replace it with an aftermarket option like Ingalls, that way you will always have the ability to adjust it later especially if/when you get a drop, probably run abou the same amount off money as new stock parts too.
