STI in the body Shop

If anyone is interested... my 2004 STi is currently getting repainted and cleaned up at Pan American Body in San Jose.

Got some project pics - all pics are thumbs

That kinda full repaint looks like it would cost a fortune. What was wrong with it?

It's a combo insurance claim with me kicking in some cash on the backend.

Gravel / Keyed

the whole thing is costing ~$7K but I'm not out of pocket for most of it.

You are not worried about them messing up your BBSs?
