Is it too late to take the blue pill?
 

Whilst returning some fireworks to place of purchase, I backed my baby into a concrete light pole base...passenger side rear bumper gouged to hell and back right on the corner...and now I have nothing to blow up!!!

What next?
New bumber & lighter wallet? Or is it possible that a body shop could buff sand and repaint?
Can they match Santorin Blue Mica?
Also, the black bumber bottom is scuffed a bit, guess that would spell new bumper, no?
BTW How many thousands of dollars is a new OEM bumper?

Guess I should get into Audi to make sure nothing was bent.

Now I get to drive accross 4 states this weekend with a disfigured A4. Sucks to be me!!!!

I sympathize bro. See my own post above about the uninsured/unlicensed youth backing into my parked A4. Fender has to be replaced. Bumper painted.

FYI, I got an estimate today which included for repainting bumper:

3.0 hours to repaint bumper x (32 $/hr for labour + 20 $/hr for supplies) + 10.00 rubbery paint additive = $166. I would imagine you could get bumper repainted for $200 or less.

I commiserate about driving the disfigured car. It sucks!
