If I have them do a carbon cleaning, they charge $750. I'll get a few more quotes, but that's probably as good as it's gonna get. If I do that, I'll definitely hold onto it for a few more years to get the most out of that.
That’s the usual price. Did you ever do a carbon cleaning?
SAWCE performs no maintenance. He has a magic VW.

Yes it's a cool car. But prepare the lube/sawdust.
Dang.. So o2 sensor and harness were replaced, and car is still throwing a bad o2 sensor code.. shop thinks that maybe when I hit whatever it was that ripped everything out, that some of the wires may have touched and potentially shorted my ecu.. if the car needs a new ecu, I'll probably dump it.

Good luck

Touching the signal wires wouldn’t short the ECM, but it would cause a “shorted low” code.
Of the heater supply wires shorted, it should have blown a fuse and not the ECM.
Do you know what code is being thrown?
Edit: fuse blowing comment assumes that the heater circuit is fused. If the ECM drive the heater circuit directly (ie doesn’t use a relay) and isn’t fused and the supply wire is live, then yes, if it’s shorted to ground it will kill the ECM driver.

I have no idea, I can call the shop and ask what code is being thrown. Want to fly out and fix it for me? I can pay you in pizza and beer and compliments.

Private shop or ?
Private shop. Pure Motorspots. Regarded pretty highly out here for VW/Audi.
Hmmm.. Heep in my area has a Willy's with almost all of the options that I configured for myself. Missing the LED lighting, premium sound, and the half doors..
time!
Good luck
