How long have they had your truck?
I would not rush them, otherwise you might get a less than perfect job done on your truck. Just my .02.
I don't know where you are getting it fixed at, but if it is at a dealer, then you know probably know how they are.

i have never known a body shop to get in a hurry. and normald when they say it will be done add like atleast three days. they do that to you about two to three times then they will finaly be done.

aint that the truth!! I'll never take any vehicle back to a dealerhip after the experience I had with my '00 silverado. (hood not on right, paint runs on both fenders, etc etc) then they try to give me **** about it? I THINK NOT!

hey pewter i feel for ya also. put mine in yesterday. to get the damaged repaired that the transmission shop inflicted on the bumper and rear driver fender. told me it will be ready thursday night. we will see. as of right now i get to drive a ford escort. the damn thing is slower than my wifes ranger. dont really like my a$$ dragging the ground either. when im at a light i can see straight under most normal sitting trucks. used to being in mine and looking through the back window to watch for traffic stopping.
