Last summer, a day or so before I decided to a my bumper service, my 996 took one
right on the nose
you can see where the bumper was cut, just to the left of the plug
kind of a bummer because I had just purchased the Rennline grilles and new lip
bought a new spoiler and decided to leave it black, I like the look
new clear bra too
For Chicago and suburban owners, A & L in Palatine (ask for Val) was great to work with
on time, no stories, no worries
lots of German steel on the lot and Val really knows Porsche owners

Reason: clarification
I flew into Charleston, SC tonight and became the proud new owner of #896. The previous owner babied this car with 37,000 miles and Sport Seats with painted hard backs.
I had European Road and Racing install a full IMS Solution along with RMS, clutch, AOS, etc. (Karl Troy at ER&R is absolutely fantastic to work with!!) I decided on the "solution" because I plan to keep the car a long, long time and my IMS research said that gently driven, low-mileage cars are at special risk.
I will attach pics later. My first 911, BTW. I am driving my new bucket list checkmark back to Kansas City this weekend. Road trip!!

Congrats! Eduardo had that up for sale for a long time and he would not budge much on the price a few months ago. His price was fair, but it was not what I wanted to spend. Looked like a really nice one and absolutely loved the sport seats. With that one now sold, there is only one 40th for sale on autotrader. There was 7 when I started looking.
Fracture, thanks for the plug on A&L. Trying top find a body shop of any value is tough. I had talked to a guy in Fox River Grove for some other projects that was decent but no actual experience yet.
Thankfully my 996 is in no need of paint!
I like those Grilles you have on the car...hmmm...

Karl is a great guy, and a great friend of ours. Today I invited him to start the processes to become a Certified IMS Solution Installer.
He bragged on your car to me more than once. I talk to Karl everyday, and he's the craziest Austrian that I know!

Glad to hear Nr. 0896 found a great new home - congrats! She looks fantastic. When you get a few minutes please shoot me an email at 40jahre911@gmail.com so that I can get a few details to add you to the Registry car list. Ted
