    seems to be the way most panel shops work from what ive seen. Always starts at a couple days and ends in weeks!

    Yep. I should have assumed longer than a week, because I assumed a week when I thought he was going to say the weekend.

    I'm not as frustrated as I thought I'd be actually...but still. Yeah I'll see how we go, he said give him a call tomorrow so I can work out a time to get my windscreen guy to come so there may just be hope yet. I'm not getting my hopes up though hahahah

    This is qite normal hell, my vr was suppose to oly take 4 weeks to complete cause I told them to take there time...it took them 2 1/2 months but I wasn't fussed.

    If its meant to be its meant to be. Don't rush them, its the worst the customer can do with a panel beater.
    I'm soo euro even my missus is shaved...

    never rush a someone who you want quality work from. Otherwise done be surprised if its compromised.

    Absolute truth right there boys. It'll frustrate me if it's not ready in time for Nats, but he reckons it will be and I won't push him

    If they actualy worked it shouldnt take longer than 3days to do a quality job. Aussie panel beaters are the worst, and just because it takes ages doesnt mean you will get a quality job.

    I agree entirely. But it doesn't mean I should nag him to work, because that WILL just compromise my car...lol.

    The way he explained it, he told me it wouldn't take more than ONE day! But hey...he's a panelbeater. It'll take a month.

    Mate, it's taken 6 weeks to get my wheel resprayed/repaired... I made the mistake of saying "take your time..."
    I'm not nagging because i know when i get it back it will be perfect.
    I'm going to the pub... I may be some time...
