They sublet the rebuild of the axle replacing the inner CV. Runs great and tracks nicely, but now that I've had a chance to drive it more...man it rides like a buckboard. With 99K, I'm gonna do the shocks.
Since the nose has a lot of scoring/pitting, I want to get the nose painted (I have the Aero option on the car). I queried the mechanic about a nearby body shop, and he said "you have an old car. You should just drive it for a couple of months and see". The car has a few small dents and dings, but I won't address those right now, but don't want to drive it with the nose looking like that. It's a Porsche pride thing
The other "major" issue is there is a big hole in the outer driver side bolster. I'm looking at options.

Detail of nose lightened to show damage...
