Default Saw "no turbo" plate

Well, I was on Monroe Ave, and the route 65 intersection (Near Pittsford Plaza) and I saw a yellow S2000 pull out of a store, plate said "no turbo". Looked real sweeeeeet! I know it's someone here, I vaguely remember that plate name being discussed in a previous thread about custom plates...
I think the driver had driving gloves on... I can't wait until 2005

There was a bit of traffic at the stop light, and I needed to turn left onto rt. 65. Otherwise I would have tried to follow ya and say hello.

I was actually behind and to the left of you and got a good look of you S2000 from the back, didn't notice the front plate. From that distance, the stock 16" wheels looked better than I thought. I had been thinking that the S2000 needed 17", but maybe not.

Later...

Jeff, it is a conspiracy, just face it! Our objective is to drive around in highly disguised cars/trucks and monitor your S2000 activities.

So, I'm a little nervous asking the question, because I don't want to bring up anything bad, but are you happy with your car, did they do a good job?

Other than the need to have it repainted to color-match properly (and it looks to me like they added $100 to do that - doesn't seem right), it appears to be first-rate work. I haven't had a chance to check it out with a clean car in sunlight for things like overspray, thin paint, etc. but the first detailed look under artificial lights in the shop looked great.

So, yer off the hook - for the moment.

As far as I know, the only Dorschel body shop is behind the Toyota/Buick dealership. There's a side road with Frontier on the left and the body shop about 100 yards down on the right. I think the street name is Telco Rd. (cute, huh?)...
