While turning into a parking space I felt a tug on my hand. My finger snagged my key chain and mortally bent the key. Being the only key I have I'm down to starting my car with a pair of pliers.

Who can re-cut 914 keys? I tried once locally an no one would do it.

Curt made my keys from a picture. I see you have a picture, might want to edit that part out.

Curt made a key for my 914 from only a picture of the key as well. I used a similar service to make replacement keys for the two 911s. So yes, you may want to consider removing that picture from your post (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
