Does anybody know a UK source for a 944 Turbo rear valance? Crumped it badly on my own anti ram-raid bollard outside my workshop earlier this evening and I'd rather not claim on the insurance, given that it doesn't look too hard to replace on a DIY basis. TIA.
Errrr!
ouch !!!!!

My bad. First post here too. Ok, so I feel suitably dumb. Apologies.
ROFL
G.M.T.
Personally I thought it was precisely on topic, except that nobody actually quoted a Porsche retail price.

Now that is funny - but not quite as funny as my work incident. I worked for a construction company and took one of the girls out to lunch. When we got back I reversed into a parking space and was distracted by a pair of waist-wrappingly gorgeous legs pretending to be hidden by a skirt that was more like a belt. The side of my car ground all the way down a bollard that was designed to stop forklifts hitting cars like mine.
As if that wasn't bad enough, the gossip about us had done the rounds, so there were half a dozen office girls watching the incident who only wanted to see if we came back in the same car.
The wife I had then was interested in how it had happened, too.
Lol...I thought the OP was on topic for this group too.
I did a similar thing in a shopping centre car park in a previous life...it was a very low wall that wasnt visible from inside the car. My (then) wife was with me so I had no explaining to do...she TOLD me what a naff driver I was! :-)
OK, since its embarrassing story time, I once managed to back a ford transit into a "cab-less" HGV Chassis (perforating the old "lift up" door)
I`ve also managed to back into a 3 foot (possibly even 4 foot) wide column holding the roof up at a local fast-fit tyre place. Yes, it was quite visible at the time, and the only thing I have in mitigation is it was painted white, the same as all the walls :-}
To rub salt into the wound, not only had I reversed quite quickly once I made sure I was clear of one of their ramps, but I was only there to get a tyre changed that had been pulled on the MOT 20 minutes before, and was heading back to the garage to sort the cert. out. I parked on an angle to obscure the damage as they checked / signed it off :-}
