I just took a trip past the dealership where the car is being repainted, I looked inside the window and saw the SVT, rear bumperless (all I could see was a little bit of the backside of the car). I was thinking to myself, well, they're doing it right finally, but then I noticed that the exaust system tips looked to be about 4" lower on one side than the other... Wonder what will come of this?!

I'm actually taking a trip by there now too (it's eight minutes away, also on the way to my job). I wonder if it'll be out in the parking lot. Hopefully not, since I'm sure you don't want this to be done carelessly!

Well, I just strolled thru, no SVT in sight, I even looked in all of the paint, recon and service bay windows. No SVT to be found.....Very Interesting. Maybe I'll pop in tomorrow morning say @ 7:15 to see how the car is progressing.

Do they have one of those booths where they let the paint cure under some heat lamps or something? Maybe it's hiding there.
