Agreed! Who has such a poor life that they have to take it on others?

Had it done to me too. The way mustangs are, the almost always get it on that body line. Fortunately, I got mine fixed. what I've heard from others and my own experience is that it's pretty easy to roll back out, so consider yourself lucky

What can I expect to pay to have it fixed? What should I ask for as far as the type of fix?

Nice lookin' Stang Mitch, welcome. However, this thread is for 05-09 Mustangs. The '13-'14s have their own.

Rear shot of my Bullitt with the new 255 tires. Wish I could have fit 285's on the stock wheels.

Just a couple shots I thought looked good. I've been super lazy and haven't washed my car in about 3 weeks. Should be getting some Ford Racing P Springs to drop the car soon. With the new 255/45/18 tires I basically added 1/4" to the wheel gap, so the P Springs should drop it about 3/4" which should make it sit perfectly...at least I hope! Also strongly considering the Raxxiom Gen 5 tail lights, but they are a little pricey for me at the moment.

Yeah, I will try to from now on. Depends on the weather though. I need to park closer if it is slick out.

Your car looks nice! I'm thinking of the FRPP springs too. I just got some 18x10s with 295/45s on the rear to mate up with my OE 17x8 Bullitts up front.

Took the car out of the garage for the first time since last fall with the new Air Lift Performance suspension.

Not sure about the type of fix. They should understand if you tell them you have a crease/dent in one of the body lines. Or just drive it to them and show them. I forget how much... I want to say it was close to $100? Most of the money went to paying them for getting the whole door panel off to get to the backside of the sheet metal. Honestly I remember thinking geez at first, but seeing the body lines of the car be straight again was worth every penny.

Thanks! I'll definitely look in to it. It'll have to be a month or two, since I've had a lot spent on my car already lol. But, $100 is not too bad,

Today, I fixed Whinnie's crooked stripe on the driver's side panel right in front of the rear wheel. It was angled downward from when my friend and I put them on a month ago. It had bothered me but not to the point where I could wait til I got extra parts to the stripes to replace it. I had originally planned on replacing the whole stripe due to the font being wrong and different than what the seller had sent me. After having them on for a while and getting opinions, I like the bigger font. He was gracious and professional. I am keeping these stripes on BUT, if (heaven forbid) these get damaged in any way, I can replace and fix them easily. Again, I am very thankful for the seller's professionalism to send me the correct one's at no charge. I would recommend James Dean Creations for any stripe or decals needed!

From my trip to STL. Orange or Yellow? Lol. I love the orange but the city lights at night make me love the yellow side of it also.
