Repair Update:

All of the major parts have been delivered so there has been a lot of progress today!

The radiator brackets and rubber ducting has been installed on both sides...

A replacement PSS9 was installed along with a new 996 GT-3 adjustable lower control arm + new shims (which are ridiculously expensive). The top shock mount was also replaced (more on the damaged parts below). A new Tarrett drop link mount has been installed on the shock and the drop link itself will be installed when everything else is complete. The front suspension subframe was found to be loose at the LCA mount so the subframe will also be replaced.
