I'm sorry- I'm not following and am too lazy to see your prior posts. What did you do? Paint a black car white?

Looks like they did a nice job. You can sort of tell that the side of the car was painted...WDP is impossible to match.

Damn! They did a great job! Out of curiosity, why didn't they salvage the car or did you opt to not have it salvaged?

maybe i'm wrong but a salvage tittle is only issue when the car is considered total from the insurer!
