In my experience anyway it's always been the rule of thumb to tack on an extra couple of weeks from when the body shop claims they'll have a project completed. Sorry to hear about the complications. Hopefully everything gets resolved quickly!

Yeah to be expected and they are just trying to make sure the work is done in the best possible way. But they are being way too paranoid about painting the hood.

You can use whatever you want, as long as you render a faithful recreation of the front facade of the Breakers hotel in Palm beach. Lol

Way cheaper for me to model and render and just add to all my photos.

I have NEVER EVER gotten a car back from a body shop on time.

If that's what it takes to get it done right, it's worth it.
