Ouch, that sucks. At least it looks like minimal damage that can be fixed easily although I might be tempted to put a clear mask on at least the front bumper a month or two after it is fixed because the repaint might be more easily chipped by road debris.

That's the combination I went with. Previous car was Phantom Black with black Nappa. I like darker colors for the exterior and the blue has a real deep tone that sometimes feels like a black with a blue tint. I took a gamble on the gray alcantera - ordered it sight unseen. I just knew I needed to get away from a black intereor which made the car feel really small on the inside and made it unbearable in the summer. Also choose to go Alcantara vs Nappa as a nod toward comfort over style. I have to say I'm very pleased that I made those choices.

Yeah it's not "that" bad, luckily. I had xpel on all of the damaged areas which actually seems to have taken the brunt of it quite well, besides the big gash in the bumper. Oh well, it'll be fixed

My A5 SB scored another random compliment at lunchtime today. I had just gotten out from parking it in a nice mall and some older guy said, "Wow, I really admire your car. Those lines are amazing. What is it?"

Had a 5 min conversation about it.

I like the photo, a white Audi on the side of a milk truck, cool!
