Tom,

Unfortunately those two things probably should had been the first to go out when you started you restoration. When I did my dash, I sent them out in October and got them back around May. A lot of these shops that do fine work have a long line in front of you.

Also if they do their business that provides volume, that really pays their bills so they tend to favor not the little guy. You may not like it but what happens when the big restoration shop says I need this done quickly? The gauge shop relaizes that he stands to lose a lot of business if he doesn't help the restoration shop out. If he loses you, it doesn't mean that much.

When I sent my stuff to Paul's plating you don't have to worry about an estimate. They quote you up front and money is required before they start. However you are guaranteed no big surprises.
