It looks OK from a distance, but when you get up on it, you can definately tell something's not right, and i said to myself im not even gonna try getting my car painted until i actually go ahead and FIX the roof the right way so it'll be all smooth and secksy when all is said and done and i wont have to paint the car once, replace the roof, and then paint it again. :idb:
And, i went to the junkyard today, they quoted me $58.00 for a sheetmetal roof cut for my car
