getting a turbo II hood as well since im getting everything repainted. Will work well with impending turbo swap

Whizbang · 02-19-2009, 12:48 AM

so yea got my estimate. Around 4200 - 3000 depending on the location. Waiting to see what insurance wants to do. Hope to be going with the Turbo hood (for future use) the S5 front and that MS Corksport replica lip while getting everything done.

Aw man - I just checked in on this thread and had no idea you got wacked! Glad their covering it though.

It'll be a really nice vert with fresh paint, T2 hood and S5 aero... sometimes getting hit is a blessing in disguise. Too bad yours was pretty clean to start with though...

as far as the corksport lip, I just wanted to let you know about Shine Auto Quality replica parts. Are you going to make this car fast? Shine auto produces very high quality replica parts (better fit than the real thing!) and they have a nice selection of:

reverse vented hood
OEM look wide fenders
Turbo 2 lip spoiler
Half bumper aero
sideskirts
FC2000 conversion bumper
Rear "spats" (Look up Kevin Landers' car. These are add on pieces that go on the side of the rear bumper, and give the car a really nice look.)

Just wanted to mention in case you were interested.

hmm....ill give it a go. Im still waiting on the insurance lady. Slowest company EVER. I had to call them to get things started.

Whizbang · 02-24-2009, 12:29 AM

insurance wants to total it. Details on how this is going to pan out to come.

Whizbang · 02-27-2009, 07:06 PM

car is being parted out.

Max777 · 02-27-2009, 11:45 PM

Really? Total it? Why? Does that mean it now has a salvage title? The needed repair was not even that bad really, so wtf? That sucks... a lot.
