Looking forward to seeing the end result. Honestly, I haven't really explored this part of the forum before...but wow, great work all around on all these cars! Keep it up!

repairs updated

I don't/can't do bodywork so i really enjoy these threads. I wouldn't have guessed that you could get that lower radiator support brand new like that. You just drill out the spot welds and weld in? The work looks good, honestly i'd never know anything happened.

Seems like so few 8/9s still have the undertray intact these days. Out of the ones that come in that didn't have it ripped off in the collision, how many still have the undertray? 20%? 10%?

Yeap you drill out the spot welds and weld it back in. Then mask it all off and paint it. You can get any part of evo its just the process of welding and cutting and installing it. I would say none come in with a under tray because every shop removes them and asks if they want it back on and they say no lol. I didn't even have a under tray on mine till recently cause the bumper comes with a full on under tray as part of the splitter lol.
