Cost was $1800, they striped 5 paint jobs to bare metal. fixed the filler hole in the front hood, took out stone dings, smoothed the flares and wet sanded/polished the car. Not bad I figure for the cost!!!

I forgot to mention the window vent, I made for getting a little more air in and it works really well. Made a mold and heated a piece of plexiglass and it slipped right in. The draw back is there is some dirt and stuff that comes it too..... The paint stripping took 4 or 5 days they said as they had to take it off in layers. The paint is from one of their books as I used Mexican paint. It is close to the blue that Mini Coopers have but a slightly red base so there is some purple in it. I drove the car over but trailered it back and did not bother to strip anything.
