Hey fellow Renners, I found out the hard way that the RS has no stone guards. I acquired a fair number of stone chips yesterday. Now I need the Best Damn Body Shop in New Jersey, NY area. Any suggestions?

Dang! I have the "stone guards" 3M in the real panels but still got a couple of small chips...yeah, right above the stone guards. Even got a small pinpoint one on the roof. Truth of the matter is if we're gonna drive (and not garage queeen) our cars there will be stone chips. A good body shop? Do you really want to repaint this early?

However, if you really want to get this fixed call Alex at Princeton Porsche...they'll help you out. Only affiliation I have is that of a very satisfied customer. Feel free to say I said so. Cheers!

Thanks BobbyC
I have quite a few on both sides, and I have a Black/Orange car, so they're visible. I'd prefer not to repaint, but even if I put on the 3M now, I'm afraid they'll still be quite obvious.
Thanks re: Princeton

OK, forget the re-paint. Does anyone know the touch up paint code for the Black/Orange RS? I need the black code.

u dont need code.
just goto dealer parts dept and tell him you want black on RS ( which is same as all the other 997 blacks ), they will find it for u.
