Body work recommendations for my 997 -custom stuff-

I have a GT3 vent I'd like installed in the front bumper of my 997 Turbo... so this requires modification (read cutting) of the front bumper, etc. I think I've asked this before, but I'm ready to move forward with this project.

I'd also like to have my rear diffuser more properly attached to my bumper... seems that the design doesn't quite line up with the stock mounting points, so I need a shop that's good at making things right.

Who do you guys take your babies to?

This was me on Saturday... now I need the professionals to take over!

Thanks everyone! I've used Bel-red in the past and they were great as well....

I ended up going with Mark at Eurotek... dropping the car off Tuesday. (as long as everything goes as planned).

Yeah, dropped the car off this morning... it was comforting to see a bunch of other 911's in his garage getting various stuff done, especially that 996 that was getting the full paint job. Wow!

He definitely seems like he knows what's up.

Thanks! I was hoping to go to Redmond this morning with the car, but I guess it's not finished. Haven't heard from em since I dropped it off... they're probably enjoying it too much. lol

Well Eurotek (Mark) did a fantastic job... they really go out of their way to make things perfect. They even tried to make the front vent functional via GT3 parts, but could quite pull it off, so for now it's purely cosmetic. Turns out most of the aero of the turbo seems to be funneled under the car anyhow, so don't want to mess that up.

They also attached my rear diffuser and made it fit correctly... the whole car imo looks great now. Very satisfied. Thanks again for everyone's help!

Now I have to figure out what to tackle next... maybe just enjoy the car for awhile? lol
