That sucks, I went the ebay route for a replacement front lip myself and was happy with it till a deer did far far more damage to it

BTW, what model QuickJack are you using there?

5000 TL. I use the pucks that fit in the lift points and the small blocks. I use this on my Macan also. Works great!

it was warm yesterday and i decided to check the air pressure in my tires. i need to replace the coilpacks and plugs as i think this is why my off idle throttle response is alittle lackluster

That seems like a bit of a drag, why does that need to be documented?

I could see it being documented for insurance replacement value - add an expensive exhaust, I'd want that covered in a write-off...
