Thanks for the replies so far.
The car is a '99 and t's been 'rode hard and put up wet' as they say. I don't think anyone on this forum in their right mind would have bought this car but I had my reasons.
The front hood has a few rather large dents and the bumper cover needs some work. There are several dings that might be able to be fixed via the PDR. A lot of scratches and swirls everywhere. All cleaned up it looks great- just don't look close up.
From the replies so far I think I'll take it to a shop that my mechanic said does good work and see what they have to say. Maybe some areas just need some TLC.
Basically, all I want to do is spend a couple of thousand dollars so this car doesn't embarrass the Porsche name.

Thanks again.
