Measurements of the metal frame around the headlight
 
Would anyone be so kind to take some measurements around the nearside/passenger side headlight (Drivers side if you own a LHD). Its the metal frame around it I need. The drift handbake decided to come off on a steep slope (The car was running - Defrosting the windscreen at the time)...So the rex kissed the back of a '09 RS6 at a fairly decent speed....The light assembly seems to have been hit back and up, Although it looks pretty much intact otherwise. I'll post up some pictures to show more exactly the parts I need when I finish work.

The Audis bumper poped out on 1 side. After re-fitting it, it only had two small scratches...The rex in comparison came of pretty bad. The front bumper basically shattered as FRP does and passenger side wing was bent into the wheel. The side lights are wrecked too. The oil cooler took a hit but doesnt seem to be leaking. Time for some FEED body panels I think :).

Cheers

Tom.

I managed to bend the wing out. Heres picks of the damage. Sorry for the bad quality...Phone picks.

Notice how far out the rain guard is out by.

Luckily the lights were up so they did not take much of a hit:
