That was quick! Must have had a few guys working hard on it.
Were they able to save the rear right wing/fender ?

No glass, its lexan because the glass guy broke the windshield he wanted to put in and no RSA steering rack, but I will put the RSA rack in when the car comes back in August / September.
Impressive. Parts look better on your car than they did on mine. BTW where did you source your lexan and what do you think of it? Is the rear and side glass lexan also?

The guys had the car ready for the body shop, the body shop had it 3 weeks and it came back just yesterday and they finished up in 2 days.

It's fixed racecar OK, not showroom car up close, but it will do for me and I made them rush like hell to make my track weekend at Button willow next weekend.
Yes right rear was saved, new lights and they repaired the wing.

The Lexan came withh the car, sorry.

Haha, your front bumper was crap, I still had one with the splitter mounted already, a spare that came with the car the fender and the side skirts were used.
I still have a pair of light weight doors, left fender and a everything to make it stock again if that ever happens.

I did disclose it needed work, with pictures of the damage. What did you expect for that price?

All it needed was some plastic welding. Easy enough to do if you know how. I am currently repairing a 964 turbo front bumper that is far worse and needs the headlight washer holes filled; will look like new when I am done.

Still looks great, all the best

No worries Anthony, I typed it too crass. All as advertised, my apologies.

Everything else I did need was in good enough conditions, happy with my buy from you.
Without your help the car wasn't on the way to mark off a bucket list item :-)

Let's hope it's put together well!
We may still have to remove the sunroof and have you drive cross country to deliver the backup car ;-)
