    the day whas rainy, the route whas not dry, but the more important problem whas the route whas full of the smalls stones, and the sensations whas to drive in the scrup route, I don,t drive fast, I have many experience in to drive a hig power cars, many ferraris, but never a old ferrari without anny assistance, probably this is the problem, I thing the car problems are not importants and in few weeks I can back, but in this time with a expecience in a drive school.

    when I bought my F40 GTE both front and rear were showing a lot of similar problems (and even more coming from races).
    So JMB racing in Nice sent such pieces to a carbon and kevlar specilist and all were repaired and repainted. I can tell you that is was perfect and feasible without having to change those important body parts.
    As I can see on your pics, damages looks quite limited, so try to do like me!
    Good luck to fix it

    in the firts view, there are not a mecanical problem, the chasis is ok, the problem is only in the rear valence and rear hood, can be expensive but not serius
