HELP! Parking Lot Mishap - Want to go aftermarket and need to make QUICK decision!

[feuss2]

I have a small little issue -

I allowed someone to move my car in a parking lot - they didn't see the concrete end-block at the end of the space and tried to dive straight forward

Anyway, the gray plastic lip/trim along the bottom of the car popped off the car when he tried to reverse his tracks. All the clips where they fasten to the car look broken. Other than that, the car is fine, but I don't want to drive around ghetto for too long....

I have done a little searching, here and on different audi tuning websites. I either need to get some oem parts quickly, or decide on something aftermarket. If anyone has replaced this part with something that looks good and fit extremely well, etc please chime in here - open to any/all suggestions except for distasteful ebay stuff....

Are there any other Audi parts that could be an upgrade here? Maybe something off a B6/S4 or B7/S4?

Ultrasport front valance. It's an OEM piece. Takes some slight modifications to get it to fit on a stock bumper, but your friend might have already taken care of that when they tore up the front.

You can find it on a bunch of different websites like ecstuning.

do the USP lower DIY. You can get USP lowers for around 225 new from ECS or DTH. The DIY is on here, and pretty easy. I'm going to do it soon enough. Best look IMO.

i just picked up my USP from the local audi dealer for $200

Before everyone keeps telling you to do the USP front lower you need to make sure that the upper still has the supports behind the lower to hold the USP up. So in the middle of the bumper you can see the lines going down in the middle. Under those lines the upper bumper has supports behind it that holds everything together. You can look at the DIY for the USP about what I'm talking about cause we trim them up some. Just make sure it is strong or highway speeds might move things around after you install everything.

Stock upper undamaged


Compaired to this trimed upper ready for USP. (Just look over this one to make sure the support in the middle is not broken at the top where they meet)

First, I would like to thank everyone who replied.

I opted to go with OEM parts, and found them at great prices on sunsetaudiparts.com

Their customer service is top notch - by phone and e-mail.
