About my Previa and Sienna

While I am thankful for the work from the body shop, there were some issues. First I noticed my cup holder broken (won't retract fully). This was one of those pieces I took care of because it is a common issue. 2nd, I don't know why, but the turn signals weren't working in the front. They were blinking fast. I thought maybe the bulbs were backwards or maybe no bulbs at all. Well, bulbs are there and as far as being connected, everything seems in place. The bulb is dual filament and can only be put in one way... This is happening on both front signals and it wasn't like that before. Additionally, why would the driver side be doing this? It was fine before and nothing should have been taken from the right side. So I took off the turn signals to see if they were connected and try to troubleshoot. This is when I noticed that the driver side (which shouldn't have been touched) corner was broken in the mounting tabs. This was fine before. Not to mention,

First off, I am super happy to get my Previa back. I kept going back and forth about what to do since the accident happened. Quick recap: Sept 2017 older guy him my Previa. The right side smashed. Once I put on the spare tire, I knew the suspension alignment was off as it was pulling to the right very hard! I needed to clean up the damaged portion a bit and give it a better assessment. So I replaced the fender. In this picture, you can see how pushed back the wheel is. It is  closer to the door than the front bumper. There is also damaged to the door as well. I searched CL for Frame straightening and AJC Autobody came up. I asked someone at CCSF's autobody class and they said it was recommended. I called AJC and sent them these pictures. They said they would do the job for $1000 as a base (additional costs depending on needs). I told them it didn't have to be perfect, I just want it to be straightened as much as possible.  I agreed to the quote and g

It's home! As of 2/9/19. Let's do the timeline: September 2017 - Older person hit my van. November 2017 - Final assessment of Previa and decided options. 2018:  Tried to find a Previa chassis with same options (95 and up, supercharged, dual sunroof and capt chairs in middle row).  I also attempted to find a place to drop motor and transmission with no luck. Decided to check the costs for frame straightening. There was only one shop that popped up on CL and that was  AJC Autobody. I contacted them and sent pictures. I was quoted $1000. I went to a couple junkyards for a few parts.  I had the van towed to their shop. I stopped by and met with Dave. We talked and I asked if they have a place that does alignment. They said they have a sister shop that does alignment. I pushed for it to be done after the frame straightening.  I called a couple weeks to get an update. I was told that the headlight I brought was not the right one. I told them that the headlight
