My Cars At The Shop...

As some of you may know when i recieved my 06 si it came with a small scratch on the passenger door. Honda called me Monday that they had finally recieved the paint and now i'm just a little worried. They say the body shop is down the street but does honda even have a body shop? They better not just touch up the scratch. Also worried about who is picking up my car and taking it to the shop (by the way this is classic honda.) My colour is habenero red pearl and just worried about the paint matching the rest of the car.

Update...just purchased my konig Unknown rims today, 17's wrapped in exclaim UPH tires.

any pics of the rims?

And they should do a good job man. I doubt they would use that touch up paint.

a lot of dealers use other body shops ... when my car got hit last april i took it back to the dealer (mississauga honda) to do the work....they had their work done through showcase on wolfdale rd in mississauga, and they match the paint and did a great job....+ there is a lifetime warrenty on all the work they did....so if they F uck it up, for whatever reason, i wouldnt worry... + dont be afraid to go to the shop, i was there a few times to check on the work and they showed me what they did, or were gonna do and i was able to see the old door , etc. cause i wanted to make sure they didnt just fix it and put it back on....

should look good on your car. The only pair that I've seen similar would be xscropio's.. but they aren't the same.

When you putting them on?

How wide are the wheels? Offset? Tire size?

Remember I might want your stock tires.

Classic Honda in Brampton Automall? I know Chrysler has their own body shop and my car has been there before. I wouldn't be surprised if Classic Honda uses Chrysler's body shop.

I wouldn't worry much about it. But I wonder if they buff down the paint, bondo it up and repaint that area again?
