Default What is the correct left fender repair for my 1987 911?


Today a friend of mine backed up in her SUV and hit the left side of my 1987 911. This car up until today has been perfect with over 20K in engine and interior work over the past 4 years. The body was perfect and all original so you can imagine how I feel.
She hit the fender right over the left rear wheel which is now pushed in and up about 4-5 inches. Also the lower bumper/fender under the back side of the rear left wheel was pushed in about 4 inches. Also the panel no longer sits flush with the rear wing and engine lid. What is the correct repair for this type of damage?
Also I just joined Rennlist this week as a new member so I am still finding out about what is available on this huge site.

Here are some pictures of the fender bender. Will I need to replace the entire quarter panel or will a piece be welded on? I want to repair this correctly so any advice would be helpful

Bummer!

If nobody gives you any specific suggestions, contact your local Porsche club chapter and ask for a referral.

Good luck!
