chris_f Posted 18August, 2016 Author Report Share Posted 18August, 2016 An elderly lady failed to give way at an intersection... Luckily the impact only happened at low speed and she was fully insured Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted 18August, 2016 Report Share Posted 18August, 2016 I take it that the V8 is up and running then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_f Posted 18August, 2016 Author Report Share Posted 18August, 2016 It is! Managed to put 500km on the new motor before the mishap and it's a very noticeable difference... loves to rev and sounds like a demon at idle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Posted 19August, 2016 Report Share Posted 19August, 2016 I believe the 944 S2 guard (fender) will fit - might enable a wider search if so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_f Posted 19August, 2016 Author Report Share Posted 19August, 2016 Thanks Rob, I tried searching for both over the last week and nothing has turned up. Aporschapart were after $685, so we've decided to repair the current fender instead.Still interested if anyone has one they'd be willing to let go for ~$400 (car is booked in for mid next week) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timm Posted 20August, 2016 Report Share Posted 20August, 2016 http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Brisbane-Porsche-944-guard-fender-wing-/162168673129?hash=item25c2019369:g:koAAAOSwGOxXAlDkI don't know if this is correct for your car, I just remembered your wanted request when I spotted this on eBay.The n/a fenders won't fit the Turbo or S2 unfortunately. But maybe it can be cut up and used to repair the damaged fender? Although, I'm guessing the part that's damaged will be near the front which is where the two fenders differ.

chris_f Posted 20August, 2016 Author Report Share Posted 20August, 2016 Thanks for the suggestion, I saw that febder on ebay, but Tim is right, the NA fender won't mate up to the turbo style bumperTim, the Majority of damage was on the side of the fender, I pointed the nose of the car away while breaking in an attempt to protect the motor.. just glad that it all happened at low speed and I could still drive car afterwards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timm Posted 20August, 2016 Report Share Posted 20August, 2016 Ah I see, hopefully there was no damage to your wheel or suspension then?Hope to see her back on the road soon...and then I think you really deserve a run of good luck and incident free driving so you can finally enjoy that beast!

Having the wheel turned at a slight angle when it all happened meant the fender copped it all. One advantage to having a less aggressive offsets I suppose not even a scratch on the wheel.Thanks man.. maybe I need some high-vis stripes on the car so it's more visible to other drivers.. an air horn too.. flame throwers maybe..

Timm Posted 21August, 2016 Report Share Posted 21August, 2016 Oh nice, that is quite lucky indeed. I would have thought the LS is loud enough....but you could always install one of these in the boot ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
