Audi A5 Face Off!

This Audi A5 sportback has had a frontal prang and cracked it's bumper. It is in to have what can only be described as a local repair... Hence, it's in the air and the front bumper is taken off to reveal the enormous radiator and aluminium bumper reinforcement behind it.

The bumper makes up most of the A5s front



Once off, the bumper has it's paint scuffed back and as a new bumper here will cost the best part of 400 euros... It is lovingly repaired with cut up pieces of an old cylinder head gasket, riveted and glued on to complete the first stage of repair...
Yep, that piece of gasket normally seals around a combustion chamber.



The bumper is refitted and the car goes off to the sprayer who applies some paint to bring the nose cone back to a respectable showing again...
 A bit of filler and paint and those rivets will disappear...
