Accident Repair Thread.
As some of you may know our A8 was damaged the night before the meet. We have had the car since it was a baby, about over a year old I rekon. Have now had it eleven years anyway and with it just hitting 70k miles with the reliable four speed box, there is no way in hell that this car is going to get scrapped or sent to A8 Heaven (Sorry Ian)
So tomorrow I will start a writeup with lots of pictures of my progress. The damaged items are one headlamp, one indicator lense, the bumper and bonnet. The Raditor (I think) is also leaking. I have as of now just managed to open the bonnet, it was stuck. I managed to open it by removing the broken grill and putting my hand underneath the latch. I have just now taken one light the bottom grils & headlight washers out and disconnected the undertray. Had to stop due to lack of light, Pics also to come in the morning. Tomorrow I will put her on axel stands, take off the undertray, front bumper bonnet and radiator, I am hoping to get the parts for Tues/Wed at the latest. Wish me luck folks as I am a compelte novice, any tips and pointers would be most welcome.
