Ouch.

Looks like it was a nice nose aswell.  I presume you can get it fixed????

You could always carry on with the black tape around the front.  Gives it one of those black canvas looks like they fit in America!  Unfortunately like on crappy Taurus\'s an the like.  Good for preventing stone chips tho.

Hope you get it looking back to it\'s former glory soon.

Looks like the rear spoiler is damaged as well. Guess you will have to sell it to me now. ;)

I would have thought you would have took all the expensive parts off before the track day as you just never know if you\'re gonna damage anything, as you found out:(
