$900 is dealer quote, where'd you find yours?

I should go dig out my damage estimates, I have some paperwork....



Total Loss, $13,225




Almost Total Loss, $6800

 

Well let's see...if you were to go straight up materials:

Bumper Cover: $400 brand new from Audi.
Fenders: Just get a pair of OSIR vented ones while you're at it. $400
Grill: You can get new 3 bars for $200 I believe
Your hood ok? Idk how much they run.
Headlight...if the whole thing's busted well the price varies. If just the mounts are toast you can fix them with some craftiness. Lowest I've seen one is $350 used.
Aliens...I have the passenger side one if yours got busted. Yours for $50...it's $100+ from a stealership.

So let's estimate $1000-$1500 for parts. Just add paint.

 

You can get a factory 5bar style badgeless grill on ebay for about $100 shipped or less. Aliens can just be pluged and removed. Paint shouldnt run more than a grand for just afew peices.

ebay a headlight... get some osir painted fenders, ebay this ebay that... shouldnt run you more then 3k at all... and your by san jose... by any chance you think i could park my car at your house for 2 weeks im flying out of san jose on the 9th of september? oh and if you need help putting anything on ive already took mine apart and put it back together plenty of times... im in lemoore, about a half hour south of fresno

 

where can you get osir vented fenders for 400 dollars... and is that cheaper than OEM fenders?

 

you know that headlight... from the pictures... looks like it might be alright, salvagable and reusable at least... so thats a good chunk... doing the work yourself is a big chunk, its not hard if its just getting parts... the bumper "support" should be okay... so your looking at a fender and complete front bumper...
ebay headlight just in case (if your tabs are broken heres one... roughly 350 shipped)

front bumper (560 shipped)

for a fender... well if you can get 2 osir painted fenders for 400

with a headlight its 1300 + painting the front bumper, around 1500
finding a good front bumper at a junk yard, prolly wont be easy, but would be around 500 and chances are it wont be the same color unless your lucky... and would cost around the same to get it painted...

 

Not to sure about that kit. The a8 grill that is used is about $800 by itself and the kit is $560 shipped..... hhmmm.

 

it may not be perfect... but if the kid dont have a lot of money its the cheapest...

 

M FlyTT, where can you get the osir fenders for 400, i looked online and i saw them at about 600.. maybe im looking at the wrong place...

Looking at that auction it looks like theyre only selling the GRILL for 560, the front bumper itself isnt included i think...
Any non OEM bumpers that are cheaper than the OEM bumpers? Im trying to cut as many corners as i can here because M FLYTT is right.. i dont have much money, im actually a college student.
