New parts came in! Rip
Ok I'm stumped. What are those parts?

Today I installed two blue LEDs in the front footwells for some extra ambience. I tied them into the front 12v socket because that one is switched on when the car is on. Here they are: https://www.amazon.com/dp/ (commissions earned)
Chris, why do you need bearings? Those are the connecting rod bearings, right?
Well it was raining hard when I picked my car up from the body shop yesterday.
Got a good look at the work this morning and I am steaming ******* pissed. 2 panels are still not fitting together well which tells me either they didn't replace those parts, or there's other issues not addressed. Either way, going back this afternoon. At this point, don't know whether to blame the body shop or the lady's Progressive insurance for trying to fix as cheap as possible. The rest of the work came out great, so I don't know.
hmm..curious to see their work. Post a pic once its dry out.
Yeah will do. Will have to wash it first.
Well just got back from the body shop. Showed them where the 2 panels weren't flush. They take the car back, tech comes back and says, oh yeah the bracket back here is broken, we'll have to order a new one and we'll give you a call when it comes in to have it replaced.
So...were you just hoping I wouldn't notice??? Anyway, just pissy about it. More time and effort out of my day on something that should have been fixed the first time.

A supposedly highly rated one, but first time I've tried them. Won't use them again.What kind of body shop sees a broken bracket and doesn't replace it? You should be pissed.
We did a test drive of the 2019 GT Reserve both in the standard 2.5L and the turbo over the weekend. Now we are leaning heavy on the turbo version. We are going on another test drive tonight of a 2018 red Touring w/ PP with only 13,500 miles for $24k. We might be able to hold out a bit longer and see what the 2020s offer up. We could wait until January and go after a 19/20.

I'd highly advise not to rush the shop. Let them do there work, you inspect, they repeat the work until you're satisfied.
