So the stang is in the shop getting torn apart for a new paint job and to fix the rear quarter panel (got a nasty scrape on it about a month ago). I'm sticking with the stock Rio Red since I love this color with the black leather. Told the paint shop to paint the mirrors too and have new headlights on the way. Planning on putting HIDs in the fogs and headlights so that should look pretty slick. Anybody have any advice on any other minor stuff I should be looking into while the car is torn apart in the shop? I'll post pics later, I'm gonna go check it out today after work...:banana:

Depending on the money you are spending, make sure they do a COMPLETE job.
Read my review here of the body shop that did my $4200 paint job:

Precision Collision, Winter Haven, FL : Reviews and maps - Yahoo! Local

there are still things I need to take the car back to have corrected. Don't think you won't take the car back at least once or twice because some kind of detail was missed.

The shop is run by a friend of my Dad's, he has had work done on his truck there it turned out excellent...I think this will too. Either way, I'll post pics of his truck (78 f100) and my car when it gets out.
