I plan on pulling the bumper and fender tomorrow, fixing the mechanicals and then deciding a course of action.
Since I like to keep it nice looking I have a clear bra. Clear bra = 600 When I got the front end on my 350z repainted, with no body work, it was about 2000. I have one less fender to paint. A wrap is about 2000. I might do all the body repairs myself, and then just get the whole car wrapped in flat black with some of my business logos on it. It might be the most economical way to go now, look the coolest, and pave the way for when it eventually becomes an all out track/race car. Have to see what the paintless dent repair place, body shop and vinyl shops say, and then evaluate my options. First thing though is fixing the oil problem.

And I've been doing this for six years and this is my first Incident. 1800x2x6=21600.

Yeah, pricey. I did it for one weekend and my quote was 225ish with a 1500 deductible. Better than paying for the entire thing out of pocket.

Damn Mike ... I am so sorry to hear that. I am assuming you will have everything up and running for Z Dayz right?

10I got quotes from these guys HPDE Insurance Program and another company I can't quite remember. I haven't actually purchased a policy yet, just getting a feel for the cost.
Have to double check to see if that rate is on a per-day or per-event basis... I'll give them a call tomorrow. There is a 5% deductible on every claim (minimum of $1500), so for all claims under $30k your deductible is $1500 and above that it's 5% of the claim.

This won't stop me, only slow me down and make me better!!!!! I am really thinking the wrap will be the way to go, now I am thinking about designs. Flat black with gloss black 'thepowdercoater.com' logos, probably.

Look for an update by 2pm tomorrow, although I think I will put it in my journal thread.
