    Wrecked in 13 days :(

    Ive owned my c6 for 13 days and I got in an accident. This happened at a 4 way intersection with no stop signs. Feeling disgusted and disappointed. Obviously the bumper and grille are done, there is a slight bent in the corner of the hood where it meets the grill. Im gonna do an RS grille but trying to decide if I should try to do an s line bumper or just keep it the same?

    Sorry to see this, but at least you are okay and damage not worse. I am not surprised at the cost to fix. My old B8 avant had someone back into the bumper (hit & run) and cracked the rear bumper and dented the tailgate. Cost to repair was around $3.5K at a certified Audi body shop. Good luck with the repairs.

    Yeah I took it to a shop that specializes in audi and porsche. They just wrote it up to replace everything with OEM and the front end has clear bra also.

    I would take that $4k check and do a full front end swap, sourcing my own parts. Take some time, and make it dope.

    that thought is heavily crossing my mind, especially since my deductible is $1000 :(

    When i wrecked my Volvo (much younger days), I took the opportunity to swap out the front end for a fully custom piece. All done on the insurance company's dime and my car was a serious one-of a kind (V70R front end on an 850 turbo). This might be the opportunity to facelift it or some cool hybrid bumper (there's one on this site that is AMAZING)
