So my S is no longer a virgin, she was damaged today. The frustrating part is that it could have been avoided. I had a flat late last night so I took it to Discount Tire to get fixed. Tech looked at the car, said no problem. I asked him to please be careful with my wheels and informed him that it likely wouldn't fit on their lift because it had been lowered. He said, don't worry we work on lowered cars a lot. Long story short, he tried to put in on the lift and ripped my aero splitter off on the right side, pulled the lip loose and bent the bumper on both sides. Man was I heated. Anyone else ever have something like this happen? Any suggestions on getting it fixed? I'm shooting for all OEM replacement and factory sprayed parts. Does that seem logical? Will they have to blend the hood and fenders? They are filing a claim to have everything covered but just wanted to vent and ask for advice.

 

That sucks. Sorry man. I think your request is very logical, but find the best body shop around you and get a quote.

 

 

Any Fort Worth people have any good recommendations for body shops? I figured that using the Honda body shop would be the best option? Am I wrong in thinking that?

 

^At least that way you can hold them responsible when they mess things up! A few are good but few and far between, at least when it comes to the S2000! I'm not familiar with the Ft. Worth shops, but Texas Track Works would be a good starting point since its the one everyone mentions and is in FW. My body shop is located in Arlington and did great paint work, but be ready to wait FOREVER!
