Default Loud vibration after bumping front end

I recently bumped the front end of my car against a parking lot light pole with a concrete base going about 10-15 mpg. After needing and getting
the radiator and condenser replaced, my car suddenly vibrates very loudly when idle. Any idea of what happened of maybe how to fix? Thanks in advance for any assistance.

I will check. I also got a suggestion on another forum to check the motor mounts. Thanks

yea that could be it also. Snub is very easy to inspect. i assume u have a 1.8t? i say that its mounts cuz u are at idle and expirence vibration that would only lead to a few things.

Yes, 1.8t. The vibration is not noticeable when the car is moving.
