patience..i'm sure ideally..they could do a front bumper in a full 24hours...keep in mind your car probably isnt the only car they're working on, and they do need their rest like every other normal human beings

No I know but it will be 10 days when its going to be done is that really normal? I wouldn't care if thats the case I just made a point of, I didn't want to drop my car off if it can't be worked on and just chilled there.

Yeah makes sense. If I get my bumper painted I'm definitely just going to drop the bumper off wherever I go. Prolly not till down in FL again.
Sucks waiting but sometimes places get backed up. I know I waited for 2 fricken months when I had a crash on my car which was not very bad. Was supposed to be 2 weeks but the place near me sucked and took forever. That was torture!

Seems a little long but they're probably doing collision work, too, and it's UCC so you know they're making sure its right for you. They like getting business from the specialty forums so the worst thing they could do is let a bad job out the door.

Call and ask what? I know that they do more than one car at a time, I was just told from another shop they could do it in 3-4 and they said 3-5.
