New 986 Owner...Needs body shop on LI

[sonvolt10]

I picked up my very first Porsche today. A 1998 986 Arctic Silver with 50,700 miles. Mechanically, the car seems to be in great condition. I had a PPI done before I bought the vehicle and it came back relatively clean for a 9 year old vehicle.

I bought the car in Maryland and drove it home to Long Island. Despite the endless traffic, the drive was amazing; having the purr of the Porsche engine behind you is truly an awe inspriring experience.

The only blemish on the otherwise good conditioned vehicle is a significant number of dings, scrapes, bumps and bruises. Most prominently, the lower portion of the body, below the doors on both sides of the car (where side skirts would be installed) appears to be peeling.

I need a good but relatively inexpensive body shop on Long Island; if anyone has any recommendations I would greatly appreciate it.

Well, I look forward to many more posts on here an I will provide some pictures in the next day or so.

Thanks and it truly is a privilege to join the Porsche community.
