After 42 Days, My Baby's Home!
I never thought this day would come. I picked up my G from the body shop yesterday, and brought her home. The body shop did a very good job, considering what they had to do, but not perfect. I guess there's no such thing as perfect. My only gripe is that my left exhaust pipe is 1/4 lower than the right one. Instead of letting the body shop fix that, and keeping it another 2 weeks, I feel I can go to any muffler shop and spend $20, and 15 minutes, to have it tweaked and lined up. When that's done, I can live with the rest.
But more importantly, I AM VOLVO FREE!!! [img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img][img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img][img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img] OMG! It didn't break my heart when I turned that POS in yesterday. [img]/w3timages/icons/tongue.gif[/img] I probably won't post pics for a while. I'm leaving out of town this afternoon and will be back on Sunday night.
And coming home yesterday, I almost forgot what it was like to take a 270 degree, 20 mph onramp to the freeway at 45 mph.[img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img] Oh, so sweet. Like a cat on velcro. I love my G.

Congrats bro for having your 'baby' back. That'll be like getting a new car all over again......
A muffler shop will fix up the left tip quickly and cheaply, I don't blame you for not going back to the b/s.
Enjoy and have a great '4th' weekend.......[img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img]
