The sunroof will be staying as the cost to put in a new roof skin will be prohibitive.. Here are some pics of the car as is..

To do it properly with a replacement roof is £14k - the roof is £6k on its own

There are after market sunroof fill in panels available now. Short cut. Speak to Bob at http://www.autobodytechnic.com

Saw him doing it this way on a mint green 964 RS rep. Probably £1-£2k at a guess.

£6K for the Roof..! I know of a Ready for Paint, Non Sunroof 993 Chassis for £10K..! :frustrated: Bonkers..

£1-2K sounds better, and I prefer the Non Trigger's Broom approach..

Thanks for the recommendation.. 8)
 
I was quoted another 3-4 k with a GRP creation. I don't mind the sunroof. Riviera and Mexico are very similar and look drastically different depending on light. Mexico just a shade darker..

All these pastel blue colours really suit the 993 especially against speedlines.

Make sure you pick the very best paint shop ;)

What sort of quotes are you getting for the colour change. I was quoted £30k to go back to bare shell and colour change as per factory on 997! :eek:
 
It's no where near 30k for a full paint and resto, I'm in the algarve on hols whilst the car is in Harpenden mid way thru. RS rear screen going in very soon as is replacing rear exhaust shields. Just can't wait my perfect spec 993 will be ready soon.. :wink:
Recaro spg's hardbacked in Mexico blue :thumb:
 
Just to add if anyone has a set of ambers let me know .. before I pull the trigger and buy a whole new set and rear reflector. Thx

Yes the baby was ready about a week ago. My jaw dropped when I saw her the same kind of feeling I had when my son was born !!!

..I picked her up then thought let's take her for an obligatory spin so straight from the body shop at 10am to catch a ferry at Dover for 12:30 :thumbs:
Then onto a bucket list trip with fasttracktours for a Swiss alps 6 night tour covering some of the best roads in France and Switzerland :worship:
