Default New bumper and body work on the S

So I finally broke and purchased a new OE front bumper and lip. I went to a local body shop and had them install it as well as fix the wheel wells which where rolled and pulled. After 17 days, a heated argument, an extra $600, and a near heart attack, the car was finished. I picked it up this morning and thought I would share the pics of the process:

And the finished product (not 100% happy with it but at this point it is what it is):

I love the OEM front I think it is the looks the best. Bogg Auto did the work - With that being said after looking at the job I really don't know if would be able to recommend them to anyone, I had a few problems (don't even get me started). Some of the work they did was great and some of the work no so much.

When you're ready, can you elaborate further?

I've always heard nothing but good things about this shop and I've always tempted the idea of having them do some of my work.

Pm me with the issues. I have been using them for many years and have no problems. I'll give Jason a call.

Thanks for the concern guys. Jason is supposed to give me a call today and we are going to discuss some of the issues. Afterwards I will give an objective write up of exactly what happened.
