Well what a stress this little part of ownership has been till today.The quotes from garages are stupid,they all tell you different things.well popped into one place and was told 1600 plus vat or there abouts?.Twenty minutes later i call another garage that specialise in tvr's and other high end toys;)What a totally different storey,the owner owns a 4.5 cerbyes and had a 30 minute chat with me about the process,ie how you dont have to cut the fibre glass etc etc which is what i wanted to know.the outcome is that one side with a complete new outrigger will cost £500+vat,or both sides done for £900+ vat.Am having both sides done in December and will report back once the job is done
Cheers a happy Spongy

I don't think that posting the name of the company will breach PH rules - who's doing it?

Get that name posted. No rules to be broken here, if it's a recommendation.
