I brought my car into the dealer today. Although the Service Manager was not convinced that the damage was caused by his people; he reluctantly agreed to have his body shop make the repair. Whatever.
Here is a picture of the damage. Circled in red.





It would not have been a big deal but it happened after a long winter and I had just gotten everything just right. I suppose it is a price we pay for Euro Height.

Dave,

What a shame, the car was perfect last weekend at the ramble.

I have found over the years that my cars have incurred the most damage while "at the shop", whether it was a dealer or independant. The key is to find a dealer or independant that is very careful. I have had numerous services since my '97 993 at Chambers in Boston, without incident. The car is always returned without a mark... after this endorsement, I hope it wasn't chambers

You could also depend on Bob Fitzgerald, but he closed his shop and moved to the cape to teach auto mechanics.

By the looks of it, I think it will be an easy fix. Still a pain to deal with, though. Good luck and get ready for Hershey.

Hi John,
Can't wait for Hershey. Have you received an update on the Corral?

Thanks for the warning Eric and glad to see you posting again. Interesting post to say the least.

And Dudley hope they fix it right.
