Default Damage report.

Need new...

- bumper cover
- foglight assembly
- bumper cover grille
- driver's side fender
- driver's side suspension and control arms (including steel upright since the bushing is shot or something)
- wheel well cover
- avus wheel
- washer fluid reservoir tank (Jim D'arras you were right!)
- driver's side intercooler (Jim D you were wrong)
- and some other minor stuff

Other than that, John the manager of InterPro in Lake Bluff said it isn't that bad at all. I myself am impressed at how well the car held up considering how hard I was hit. It looks like the wheel took the initial hit and when the control arms busted, the mustang's nose got deflected into my fender and intercooler behind it. I must say that InterPro has an impressive shop with a courteous staff. John Romero is a great guy and it looks like my car's in good hands. Thanks Mike S for referring me to them... you're right - they're fast! The insurance company gave them the "ok" this morning and they had it wheeled indoors, disassembled, estimated, and parts ordered by the afternoon. Whoa!

My poor intercooler and wheel notice the mustang's red paint on the wheel. The way I see it, the wheel and suspension "took one for the team" but couldn't save the intercooler.

Default I did but...

I was more impressed with this place and I got VIP treatment by the shop's manager...

also, Mike S from the S4 forum has a long history with this place and he has taken a number of audis and other cars there. Not that I don't trust your advice equally... but apparently, the Last Detail aren't as "great" as they used to be. I guess that can happen from turnover of paint people and employees and such...

Default This would be the perfect time to put on that A4 bumper you've been wanting

It will confuse the natives.
