Hi Guys,
Bit gutted today I am afraid, car hit 30k yesterday and taking it to work this week as my other car is a lexus and can't handle even the lightest snow. Anyway, was driving on the motorway and didn't see a pheasant on the road till last minute and although i held the horn down it didn't get up in time and smashed its head off the front grill.
The front bumper is now bent underneath the car, scrapping off the floor and is snapped in multiple places. I have managed to tie it all together with some rope so that its not catching the floor anymore and its going in to Preston Hall bodyshop tomorrow for a quote.
Has anyone else ever required a new front bumper on a GP and if so, what was the damage and did they do a decent job. I am based in the North East (darlington) if anyone has any other suggestions, however, Preston Hall have been great in the past and did some work on my old B5 RS4 before it was sold and they did a damn site better than Audi's attempt.
