That's what I'm starting to notice.

Everyone in town seems to be booked for the next couple of weeks. And since I've already have an appointment for this Friday with the body shop, which was recommended by my BMW dealership, I'll see what they say. I also want to see if they can do my clear bra.
Do not under any circumstances let the body shop do any paintwork on that car without taking it to a detailer first.
