Hello,

I recently scuffed the passenger side skirt on my 2014 Porsche Panamera 3.0 litre diesel. I just wanted to know if anybody on here has done this before and how they went about repairing it? Or if anyone has a recommendation for the cheapest way to repair it?

The 2 suggestions I have so far is to replace the side skirt, or to take it to a body shop to fill, buffer and respray the side skirt. Which would be the better of the 2, taking both cost and quality into account? How much would I be looking at paying for the suggested methods?

Thanks for your help

The damage doesn't look too bad. A repair should be feesable however it's probably worth comparing the repair cost against the cost of a new skirt painted/fitted. There may not be as big a difference as thought.

Try finding a Porsche approvd repairer and see what they suggest (your paint warranty will also remain intact with a repair by them)
 
A mobile (SMART) car body repairer should be able to fix that for you.

Budget approximately £200 all in.

Why replace it when it when it can be repaired?
