Dropped off a couple of parts at the body shop yesterday morning, they were just refinishing the hood and trunk when I was there. Not entirely sure when I'll get the car back exactly, but it should be really soon. I've got a lot of reassembly to take care of when I get it back. It's impressive how much stuff you have to take off the car to get it to be ready for paint.

Updates to follow!

So it's been a tad busy at the shop lately, so my car's been getting worked on a bit slowly, but it's almost ready to leave the body shop so I can start reassembly. The hood has been reclearcoated, the trunk was repainted and they've installed a bit of the glass and got the blackout tape on the door b-pillars. I think the quarter glass should be going in today or tomorrow, so I hope I can get it back on Friday or Saturday. Then I can start the long process of reassembly next week.

I've got new window mouldings coming in today and I've also ordered a bunch of other bits and pieces (clips, screws and cushions, etc.).

Looking forward to seeing more parts installed on the car, sorry about the dust!
