Auto body repair & detailing: vw beetle, metal structure, bottom front


Question
I have an 04 vw beetle and was parking bt went over the curb a little at a target.... now its making like a grumbling  sound while i drive and it sounds different when i turn it on... did i possibly damage something other than scratching the bottom front of it???

Answer
KAYLA..... SOUNDS LIKE YOU MAY HAVE DAMAGED YOUR CORE SUPPORT WHICH IS THE METAL STRUCTURE THAT HOLDS THE HEADLAMPS IN PLACE.

I WOULD TAKE IT TO A BODY SHOP AND ASK IF THEY COULD CHECK IT OUT FOR YOU TO SEE WHATS MAKING THE NOISE.

IT MAY NOT BE AS BAD AS YOU THINK, HOWEVER IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA TO KNOW WHATS GOING ON IN CASE IT IS.
