Well just over 24hours ownership, Driving back from a long 200mile journey today. I have an accident because of a fool not looking, I would rather not claim and settle privately so needed advise on repairs.
Got some really nice photos of the car and it all went down hill on the way home.
Basically i have a pretty much crippled front passenger wing!
Upper Arch liner has snapped, Front Fog grille needs replacement, Bumper is all intact but headlight has some scratches.
Firstly would anyone know if the following would be fine for my 08 Plate S Line A3.
My car has the S line Sideskirts aswell,
Firstly a new wing
AUDI A3 03-08 FRONT WING N/S +NEW+ 8P0821105C on eBay (end time 15-Mar-11 09:15:57 GMT)
Would this fit fine? It will need a respray but my bodyshop will do all of this, Also anyone know how difficult it is to remove the wing? As the damage is pretty epic and it doesnt seem like it will pull out.
Also a new arch liner, would any front upper arch liner fit from an 8P Model, Its not to bad but whilst im there i would rather replace.
Finally front fog lamp Grill, I need to get a new grill as it seems from impact it has popped out and snapped a bit, Odd as the bumper only sustained a scuff.
Im just worried at how much labour would be involved in removal of the wings etc as i want the vehicle to be put back together solid.
