And I really just need to vent. No note, nothing. Just a buckled fender panel and my car pulling to the right, shaking at speed, and having an apparent camber to the wheel that got hit...

Its a wonderful day [:@]

likewise : ) I thought I avoided all possible complications by paying for a personal parking spot in a garage on campus. What do you know, The person that parks next to me is a blonde great looking girl who cant park her brand new BMW X5 worth a damn! lol

Pics?

I can't bring myself to look at it at the moment. I'll get some later.

I have so much to do now to get this fixed:
-ABS and ESP warning lights are triggered
-The wheel that got hit looks like this from a front view: //
-Need a new fender panel
-Alignment is screwed. Car has more toe out than Britney Spears.
-Need to source a new 18" Avus wheel, which my stealership says they cannot do.

Sigh. Where is my Audi's reset button?

dude if your wheels is shaking while driving, you could have serious problems. take off the wheel and examine everything. especially the control arms. i hope you reported it right?
