Greg- Sweet car. Glad you were able to get it fixed. I hope you are putting a protective kit on the front end so you don't get rock chips in your new paint?

And maybe some kind of protective kit on the driver's side so you don't get car dents in the body from old grannies...

No film on the nose as of yet, still debating that one. I understand the sentiment but I'm not sure pitted stone guard is any more attractive than pitted paint...

So you already had the 968 door handles? I'd definitely stone guard the front of the car. You can't see rock pits in it at all vs the very visible rock pits on a red car...

Wow, congrats on this! SO great to see that you built the car again. There aren't a lot of these around that look like this one did prior to the accident. Welcome back!!

Glad to see a horror story turn good. I remember back in 04 when my 951 got hit in right front corner and they said they would fix it just needed 9800 dollar. When it was all done my insurance company was in for somewhere round 22k and about a year in the shop. I knew off the bat it was going to be more but I acted like I didnt know and said ok run with it. bstill got it and drive it to this day.
