Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hello, I am hoping someone can help me.  I have badly damaged frame of my Convertible top of my 997.1.  As anybody any thoughts on how much it would cost for frame?  I could probably use the current canvas at a pinch. Thank you Paul
