Ouch! Crash repairs for a 2005 A4 cab

[Mark Rosenkrantz]

Best thing would be to turn it into insurance.

The short answer to your question is "it depends."  For example,
mechanically what needs replaced to have aimable lights, a proper hood
alignment (the replacement hood needs to latch), etc.  Any suspension damage
or alteration?  It needs looked at.... not something that can be determined
by pictures, let alone a post on the internet.

I'm actually working on a Boston area vehicle tomorrow and Saturday, but
it's driving here to central NY.   =)

Good luck,
Mark Rosenkrantz
