Default Bad Porsche day.....
Clean up my place this mornings...have 968 handles sitting out. One falls off the table and breaks the metal arm in half. I am also on day 2 of quitting smoking..cold turkey.

I go outside and find this...with a note on my windshield. The # left is not a working number.... This is the third "accident" in 7 months.. and haven't actually been in the car for one of them.

I always hate seeing these types of threads. I had someone back into mine a cpl of weeks after I got it and although it was very minor, I hate how ppl can be so careless and seeing these perfectly shaped cars bent, even slightly, feels like someone putting graffiti on a work of art. Just criminal
I feel your pain mate

Feels bad man. At least it looks relatively easily repairable. Sucks that whoever hit you left a fake number :/

I hate people who cannot take responsibility for their actions. Hopefully, karma will repay him in a big way.

Sorry to hear about the troubles...

On the plus side, I'm glad to hear about you quitting smoking.

BB.

Why is everybody on here getting hit?? I'm pulling mine in the garage and locking the door. Sorry to hear about it, but it could have been worse I guess

any chance that the #s were so poorly written it can be interpreted for another?

The good news is that the fender can be taken off easily and fixed without having to be without a car.

I think I could probably get the right fender in the box with the left one. It's not perfect but it's not like that. I'll give that one to you.

951 and 944 fenders are different...what shape is your nose panels in (951)?

My bad. I thought that was the right fender on your 951 too. I don't have a header pannel anymore.
