Re: screeeech!!! CRUNCH!! UPDATE!!



Took the car to the dealer yesterday afternoon...no visible damage under the
car, inside the trunk, or anywhere else.  I buffed out the bumper cover, and
most of the damage turned out to be paint smudge from the other guy's car.
There is a hairline crack in the paint about 3-4 inches long that is barely
visible.  The other driver has good insurance, so it should be no problem
getting it touched up.

Amazing because it felt like I got wacked pretty hard....my head really
snapped back into the headrest!  Seemed like much more than 5 mph.  Kudos to
Audi's safety engineers!
