I dunno.

But at least one of the Honda dealers (Frisco?) sends their bodywork to
David McDavid Acura in Plano (They'll work on anything. The Saturn
dealer next door sends theirs over too).

McDavid used to do really, really class work, and assigned one
individual to take it all the way through. It was literally "better
than new." They'd find the smallest problems with a microscope and get
it fixed properly.

Now McDavid has a new multi-million dollar downdraft paint facility,
and everything is now done piecemeal by lots of people.

The result is: the paint has a pretty decent finish but they put clear
coat on too thick. They scraped my perfectly good spoiler by dragging
it on the ground (!) and the fix was quite substandard. A lot of the
little details were not addressed, even after I pointed them out. They
took substantially longer to fix the car than they estimated. And, the
delay wasn't all caused by the 2 supplements from the insurance company
to address the damage they should have found in the first place.
Apparently if you have a non-Acura, they don't always get
miscellanenous clips and do-dads in-house, on time, to finish the
project.

In short, a fairly poor showing for $4,600. I would have been
extremely put out, but ultimately sold the car and the problem. They
would be my first choice, but this experience in October 2004 ended
that idea.

At least they could put on a good finish. Sewell on LBJ (previously
Meiers Infiniti) did a real poor paint job and tried to send me away
with a broken fog light, on a $5,000+ job a few years ago. That
location is now closed, for good reason.
