Dont understand these bodyshops which take so fuckn ling 
Simple enough stuff to do if the full attention is given to each car, instead of a wee bit at a time.

they do have alot of cars there to work on though. And id rather it take long than it be rushed and finished in a week and a half.
Basically Rich Said hell say thell have it for 3 weeks, cause he didnt want to tell me two then dissapoint me by needing it for another week.

no kidding 
But, if their not focussing on one car, their simply doing basically the same work on another 
Not as if their getting a break from it or anything

Midas make exceptional quality cars, probably due to the fact they take their time. Its all about detail and perfection in that industry.
