Yes Aaron, a sawzall 
They sawzall'd the fiberglass, and it chipped. I repeatedly advised them to use a router with a bit for composites.
Seeing that the guy couldn't even control the sawzall, he machine gunned the body, I suppose that he would have been even more destructive with a router.
I'll blend out these crack initiators once I get custody of my van and do a fiberglass repair later.
They sawzall'd a bird's mouth in the front quarter panels leaving ragged metal cuts, and with a BFM mashed over the rear edge of the wheel wells shattering the paint.
I'll have to pull the front quarter panels and weld the bird's-mouth shut and burnish out the 'new' rolled edge.
Know any custom work body shops that can re-sculpt my fenders?

Hi there KenAs for pictures, yes after I wash my van.
The service manager was 'shocked' that my van wasn't detailed when I brought her out to it yesterday to see the hack job.
I know they moved the van, but I'm not holding my breath that they washed it.
I intend to take pictures of the 'as left for me' and after I get the wheel wells dressed out.
