Thumbs up Damage story follow-up
Hey all...

Went to the collision place yesterday to get a quote. Amazing. The stock "base" bumper is approx. $785. The upgraded stock GT3 / Aerokit (mkI) bumper is approx. $2500. Um...wow. Amazing since the mounting points and the bumper itself is VERY similar to the original bumper.

So...I got on the horn and found a new GT3 (mk1) one for $950 shipped.

So hopefully, the guy can get the broken under body covers.

Let the modding begin!!!

Chad

And oh, BTW - Thanks Robyn for the advice. Everything is working out.
