Yes, the half circle black strip. The answer is no, they didn't get it right, they have to order the part and then they'll have to make the paint right then put it on. Not only the technicians, but as the one parts guy told me when I asked them about sponsoring our CrossFires Across America next year, he told me the marketing guy was never so happy as when the last one pulled off the lot.
Not to change the subject too much, but considering they never really marketed the car in the first place, just how much work did he really have?
I'll update when the car is done...if i remember.
Got the car back today and the chip strip looks as good as the factory...let's hope it doesn't wrinkle at the tips again. The dealer restored my faith as a good will gesture, they tried to get the scratch over my passenger handle out, but said they would need to go to the ultra fine sandpaper and touch up paint...the service manager said that the next time I am there to let him know and he will take care of the scratch for me.
I will post this part on the Crossfires Across America thread, but this dealer would be interested in setting up a mobile oil changing station for those that need one once they get to St. Louis next year. I don't know his cost, but I'm sure it will be reasonable (in store it is normally $89.99 for Mobil 1) and could help some in waiting till they get here. I have to go back to him around Jan/Feb 2010.
