hey guys, been STFA a bit, but would like any input/advice

at wedding this weekend, the "Valet" had a little problem engaging reverse -- put my S in the curb approx 3 mph

the "good" thing is, i can't see any scratch/paint damage -- bumper looks exactly the way it did before except the grills popped out and it is "unaligned" - - the fogs are functional/not cracked... i really wouldn't mind if the bumper was just refitted (however, i guess i really should have it checked to look for further damage)

The radiators/etc. aren't leaking whatsoever. They are going to cover it in full (really want to do the RS4 bumper.. finally a reason ;-)

Think an audi dealer could salvage the bumper and re-fit it? (always had a great time at continental)

I'm located in the city(willing to drive to suburbs) - any input of good shops/etc. would be appreciated.

stay safe out there guys! this forum always helps me out

lesson learned here: just park it yourself

(PS- pardon the messy front of car -- just driven 350 miles...lots of bugs... she needs a lot of love and care after this weekend)

there is one in the naperville/aurora area
off of RT 59.

i had a great experience with dave mulder over there (he was recommended from Octane on this board).

 

They did all the work on my old car.

 

Don't really see a reson to get an RS4 bumper
Of course I don't know that much about overall body work, but I know the front bumper pretty well, as I've had to take it off many a time

 

nice -- thanks muchh (i totally agree about the RS4)

 

thanks

 

them in? ... i would pay anyone well (dinner too)
(i wonder if continental could do it)

 

It'll show you what the guides look like and how to "pop" the bumper back in. In fact, I just did it this weekend w/my S4 bumper

 

nice -- thanks guys!

 

i think your dad is a fan of jeeps ;-)
