Totally understandable why you wouldn't care about fingerprints on your doors, the tassels would totally divert your attention away from the doors!

Loomis Automotive did the brake/suspension/steering/brakes/U joints/installation of rebuilt engine and tranny, (TNTC screw ups, car would not even run when we picked it up, had it back several times, finally gave up on them making it right), Pat's machine did the engine rebuild, American Transmission (did a great job), exhaust was done by a place I can't recall the name of. The regular guy that was to be great at mufflers got gout and whoever filled into do the work must have been blind and inept. Job was to take 2 days, they had it 3 weeks. Posted pics int he C3 gen over there, it was BAD!

Back in the day, Loomis was one of the go to shops. Hmmmm. I have heard of Pat's but don't know anything about them.

Thanks for the info.

Sonicaire FTW. I always wondered why my wife took her electric toothbrush into the shower; now I know.

Loomis was recommended to me too, why I was so disappointed in the lack of quality work, his hourly rate was double other shops, so I had hoped to get what I paid for.

4. I enjoy Pilates. I never would've guessed that.

I know. The only quality work done on that car was the transmission and the guy that has it now. So many mistakes it was unreal. Guess they knew I was a dumb girl (about cars) and didn’t have the honesty to do things right.
