BTW:
Did you bought the engine tray from Mittelmotor ? If yes , how much is it and how much did
you paid for the german customs when buying the frame stiffening kit ?

Hi Benno,
yes the shelf comes from Mittelmotor. Waited for it about 6 weeks. 149 Euro is the price. Dont´t know customs fee, the bill is on the way.
Was very easy to deal with engman, and the part are realy fine. Can´t await to do the welding (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif)

Hiho Mickelko,

Hey Benno,

I'm not quite sure about Germany, but I think it is the same as in the Netherlands (or other EU countries)
Importing duties/taxes are 3.5% on car parts (if the value is over 500 euro)

Plus you pay sales tax (MehrwertStuer) over the cost of the parts and shipping (16% for Germany)

So it's not too bad...

cheers,

Jeroen

This is impressive work.. I actually paid a body shop to do similar work. ....

IMHO.. I would invest in one of Brad Mayer's long stiffing kit. It really helps to make the car stronger across the bottom.

Keep us posted on this...

drilled a lot of holes to do the spot welding.
First rule: have the welding area as clean as possible.

Did you do anything special to hold the geometry of the car while you cut/welded the new outer long in there? Also, can you notice any shrinkage from the welding you've done there?

Great work!

I think that more us will be trying to rescue cars that have this problem in the future over here.
