Yeah, definietly start taking off broken pieces to get a better look at it.
Can you still drive it? Drive's straight still? I asked because when I wrecked mine I stripped the damaged pieces and drove it to shops to get estimates. --------------------  CLOSED on 25 acres! -shop coming soon.... |

yeah its just cosmetic though some girl hit me with a 2005 civic and scratched all the paint and put a hole in the rear bumper but nothing bad i will end up just waiting on that more than likely until i get it drivable
i will end up fixing the radiator and pulling and bending all the supports back with the help of my dad who is quite knowledgeable on body work so im lucky i got him around. oh yeah well just got back from shop and he got an estimate on parts for me windshield $185 hood $265 but i can get oem carbon fiber for 300 so i think ill just pay the extra so i don't have to paint left fender $206 radiator $198 but they are $150 from Napa I've heard front bumper cover $198 rear bumper cover $148 comes out to be around $1200 or so not that bad. Still need Driver side headlamps and Steering wheel and driver side hood hinge so i am open to that thanks 6gc jared This post has been edited by Jared95: Oct 11, 2007 - 3:11 PM |

left fender $206 - I would say go aftermarket fiberglass you will get both and get style
radiator $198 but they are $150 from Napa I've heard - may wanna go koyo race if you plan on ever going 3s, 4a or force induction front bumper cover $198 - once again maybe try some style for the same price rear bumper cover $148 - see above just my advise -DMC |

If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here...
