I agree about the 3pc wing. You think wingless is cool till you mount your wing, then you don't know how you ever lived without it. It fits the car absolutely perfect from every and any angle you can think of, and matches the body lines better than any other wing ever made or ever ghetto fabbed to our cars. It's your car, but thats' my .02. Btw the QS will look great, but I'm kinda with Joe a whole repaint just for 1 fender is kinda 'strange'. But GL it should look great!

Well my insurance company paid me for a new fender, and to repaint pretty much the whole front end. I didn't have to get a new fender as I had one spare one, so that left me about $1200 towards a new paint job, and I know a friend whose dad has a paintshop, so I'm getting a good deal.

Well yea but didn't you like the color you had before? You could have just painted the fender and saved the rest of the money, and that's quite a bit to add to your bank account.

Considering Matt has already dropped off the car and had all the work started, why doesn't everyone stop telling him what he should or shouldn't do?
Obviously he's made his mind up and eveyone who keeps telling him what to do isn't gonna change it.
Who cares about the circumstances of the situation? The car got hit, he got an insurance check, and now he's getting new paint, whether good or poor quality remains to be seen. So when Matt gets it finished and posts pictures, then we can all say how bad/good it came out for $1200.

Just checked the car out today. They have everything done, except for smoothing out some of the sanded areas. They mounted my lip, it's getting painted along with the rest of the car, should be done Friday. Everything looks great so far, can't wait.

Hopefully I'll have the car tomorrow, there might be a small delay due to the extremly cold weather here, it actually SNOWED! I'll get plenty of pics tomorrow if it's ready to pick up.
