  • So while shopping someone backed into my Porsche 944 and took off. Luckily the maintenance guys saw it and pointed out the SUV. Now I want to see if I can make it look better before fully fixing it.

    Thanks for sharing the attempt! I hate to see damage on that red beauty, but glad someone took the time to hold the person accountable. Best of luck on the repair! 👍🏼
    Sharing a friendly tip on lifting these cars in hopes of saving some lower fenders… the little round pucks on the front and rear of the undercarriage aren’t reinforced jack points (although very commonly mistaken as such). They were used at the factory to guide the cars along the assembly line and can cave in pretty easily. Best to jack at the center point marked with the diamond or use the cross member. Cheers!

      Oh wow thanks. Appreciate the info on jacking points. Coming from the world of Benz those pucks are jacking points.

      @@petescarport Yeah, a lot of shops have used them as well, and that’s why you’ll see slightly crushed lower fenders in those areas.

    Man, my girlfriends sister backed into my 944 a few months ago in the same area on my 944. My dent is a lot bigger though been looking for fenders but couldn’t find anything local. Sucks but thank god you’re getting yours fixed!

      With it on I can’t pull up or off ramps. I plan to make it easily removable in near future. I want to do a quick release somehow. Right now I just jack it up and slide ramps for support

    Bummer but once again I'm glad to be along for the ride. Oh, what brand is the cordless ratchet you are using?

      So I just got it. It’s harbor freights newer one made by Hercules. I made a video showing it in detail and no I’m not sponsored or endorsed but this one did blow me away and I use it everyday. Harbor Freight Hercules 12v cordless 3/8 extended impact ratchet review and demo
