I find the rearmost underpanel was damaged from both sides (check the pic), The right side is just a cut and can be easily repaired, The left side is mostly destroyed (will try to get an actual pic soon).

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I really hope someone out there can help with this... The story goes like this:
Just yesterday, I was backing off a street that I found to be a dead-end, I didnt notice that there was an abrupt elevation change (i.e. drop) between the street I'm in and the one I was backing off too. Long story short, BANG! I drive straight to a service station, check the underside of the car... I find the rearmost underpanel was damaged from both sides (check the pic), The right side is just a cut and can be easily repaired, The left side is mostly destroyed (will try to get an actual pic soon).
Now what Do you think I should do?
Option 1:Should I attempt to repair it? And if so, would it be ok? Repair suggestions?
Option 2: Should I buy a new one? If so, does someone know what's the part-number? Cost?
Thanks a lot.

. Send him that pic and he'll tell you the part number and cost.
They're great! :banana:

(Maybe 'Definately'?)
... (diffidently posted)...
You should definitely change it ... defiantly.
I would, I think. Of course, the first time I cracked a black plastic air dam in front of a rear wheel, I bought a new one. The second time... I used some black repair glue. Looks OK. (First time was a curb, second time a rock from a rock slide).

definitely
replace it.
i also tore something off from underneath my car. see the attached picture. took me a while to figure out the part. maybe it's the same???
anyhow, allan from this forum helped me figure it out months ago and we concluded it was the following part (rear suspension bracket) with 3 variations
1) Model I481=987 331 161 02
2) Model I249=987 331 161 01
3) Model I480=987 331 161 00
i got model I249 because i have a 2006 tiptronic.
You should also take a very careful look at what's hidden underneath that panel... there's a lot of stuff under there, and an impact like that may have bent something under there.
