Default Opps!!

ok to start this i love my audi and i am not out to kill it in anyway

so it started when i was at shop right and i pull in to far into the spot and got my front valence stuck on the curb. When i pulled my car back it made the worst rubbing sound i have ever heard. When i got out to look at it the bumper moved down a bit and the valence was sticking out a bit.

well it being only the valence i didn't care to much and just said "Ill never do that again"

but today i did the exact same thing but this time at the dunkin' dounuts. When i was pulling out of the spot my friend pointed out to me that my license plate was hanging off seeing a reflection in the store window. When i got out i notice my entire valence was hanging off only held on by my license plate (with zip ties). so i tried to temporarily put it back on the car. Well that didn't last long. as i was pulling into some gas station the entire thing broke off in the middle of the road. When i got out of the car all i could see was a line of cars all running over it and seeing it flop around in the road.

well i thought it would be funny to share this story here, and luckily no damage to the car and the valence doesn't look to bad so i will put it back on and hope it holds.

I hit a curb and the clips popped. I didn't realized it was attached at the end so I ripped the rest of the way off.
