Good luck with the rebuild.

Looks like a good time for a Callaway body kit.

I really like that Aerobody, but $8K for a body kit is very, very expensive even though it is made by Callaway. But if money was no object, I would definitely put that kit on my car. It is probably the only C4 body kit that is worth putting on IMO.
