Ok heres the deal...i got hit by some punk kid cutting a light in a parkin lot. Front drivers side to be exact... I have looked at the passanger side and it looks good...My question is can you buy a new Radiator support and put them in these cars? Because myne is fxcked but it looks to be welded in. Also the Metal that i bolt my fender too on the car is bent at the end..Is there a way to put a new support for that or is that something i will have to get bent back right? I will have pics of the car tomorrow im in the process of taking off the front bumper...man this bums me out big time

Wow...those pictures are really close up! but like jojo22 said, you should get the frame checked out. Can't the kids insurance pay for/fix your car? He's not getting off scott free is he????

it needs to go to a pro. i fix smashed cars for a living and i can tell from the pics that the front end of the car is definatly down. there is most likly gonna b some frame damage. i wouldnt suspect it to be anyting too terrible but theres gonna b some. your drivers side rail is definatly down a few inches. hope this helps.

Lol X rays...yea his insurance will not cover it since it was done on private property...No tickets were issued so ill be doin this on my own...I guess ill have to have a pro come check it out or dolly it up to a shop as it is in no condition to drive...Yea i really wanted to get close up on the pics so i did that....so you can see every possible angle

His insurance isn't covering it????....Dang! Sorry to hear that! But good luck to you on this! Don't worry, it'll all turn out good

It has to go on a frame rack. No way just doing to core support is going to fix it. Looks like u might even need a new rail to.And that apron part right behind the core.Looks to be down and over quit a bit.
