Default RS4 vrs Ford F-250 Braking Test - Audi Won! (er, Lost)

Just minding my business on the way home in the usual rush hour drive. Had to stop quick, the truck took a little longer.
How long do you think it will take to get the parts?
Maybe I should just try a little compound?<ul><li><a href="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/116905/audi_crash.jpg">http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/116905/audi_crash.jpg</a</li></ul>

Default I would not have been a happy person, the truck driver would not either.

Sorry and hope can be repaired as good as new.

I'd bet bones can heal faster than those parts can come from Germany...
