Where's the best place to buy [item] for my 996?
- Thread starter Dammit
- Start date
I've just bought a set of front mats from OPC Derby. They're classed as Boxster mats as I only wanted the fronts. They should've been £96 but they did me a discount on the day and I paid about £80. They also got them in on SOR just in case the colour wasn't matched.
Where's the best place to get Porsche bodywork done, either inside the M25 or South West, South or South East of London?
I have a patch of corrosion underneath the striker plate on the drivers door, a little Googling brings up Porsche Approved bodyshops charging £1,600 for this which I will pay if it's simply what it costs - but I'm hoping that someone can recommend an option that is of similar quality but a little less spendy?

Thats an insane price.
Just ask around some local bodyshops.
Its very common because Porsche omitted a rubber gasket here and there is galvanic corrosion between body and striker plate. The gasket is pennies from a VW dealer, make sure they put on in there when they put it back together.

Thanks for that recco - they got back to me today, they mentioned that this sticker would be lost in the process and would be £150 to replace from Porsche:
Here's the drivers side with the reason for this visible:
Here's the passenger side - looking ok, but who knows what's underneath:

Has anyone purchased one of these replacement VIN stickers? If so, how is it?
