Nice to see you got it back and it's looking nice, I assume the paint match and panel repair met your approval
How long were you out for repair?
I think I'd put the chrome back on the grill emblem since you have a bit of chrome in your new bumper, I think it would have a bit more pop. But looking good all the way!

Black your tails out for sure! I had it done with my '12 Black Audi A6 3.0 and it set the car apart!

Looks great.

I would do a clear wrap on the front bumper, saves you from rock chips on that fresh paint.

Thanks and that's a great idea actually. The worse is when I had my old side skirts it's like people don't know how to get out of a car it's all sorts messed up.

The RJM clutch pedal is the best investment a 6mt owner can make. I'm glad your car is repaired. I saw your original post of the damage and it made me angry. Seeing it repaired makes me happy.
