REAR ENDED and NOT HAPPY

[x-pert ears]

I got rear ended last night in my "new to me" 2008 A6. All the cars came to a stop on the 5 N to 118 W connector, except for the guy behind me! [mad][=(] Don't even have plates for the car yet. So begins my search for a shop to do reputable work. My bumper is cracked and scratched, the bottom valence is pushed all the way under and the exhaust is bent.

I called Rusnak of Pasadena, and they say they send everyone of their cars to DC Autocraft. I wanted to get the input of this wonderful forum on what they think of that place or if there is a better spot to take the Audi to. I did a search and found them recommended quite often, but didn't see/hear of how the results were.

C&C in Pasadena....They fixed my friends B8 A4 to perfection (got cornerswipped on the freeway) and my S4 is there for WB conversion. Several others here swear by them for body work. Say hi to Nicollete and Nathan if you go!

By the way..there is a sticky right on top of this page with all the recommended shops around..

as long as the frame is tight and you're alright then all should be well. sucks that you won't have the Audi for a bit, hopefully you have rental coverage that will give you something better than a Kia. similar thing happened to me before I had my plates on too- play it smart and maybe you can score an upgraded bumper/valence

I just got my car worked at Marco's in Pasadena. I'm pretty happy with the work they did - unfortunately though, whoever they sent to get my windows re-tinted did a crappy job, but when I told them about it, they said I can take it to my guy and would reimburse me.
