Post by ricedout »

ok well i got this new project and took some pics. need body work help. this will tell me to get the car or not. in the pictures the car got hit pass side front. nothing like tie rods axles etc got hurt! but the bad the fender and front bumper are toast! so my thing is how bad is this gonna be to get taken care of? and whats wrong with it? maybe core support idk. pass side light is moved about 1" to the driver side along with the front bumper. the hood and drivers side light are fine just those 2 are what im worried about. I looked at the brackets fort he light and surrounding and everything looks great! thats why im nervous. but lmk your input and asap wanting to get tomorrow if not that bad.. heres the pics thx guys and gal

if you can get more detailed pics of the whole front end with the hood up, it will be easier to judge the amount of damage.

Aftermarket headlights rarely fit correctly anyway, so it may just be cheap parts.

thats what im thinkin tommy. but idk cuz bumper is moved over to the side also and it got hit like on bumper support. the bumper covering is torn and stuck over the end of the bumper support. the support bar didnt look bent nor did the end bolt/clip for end of bumper (under front light). It 4 real matchd up with the driver side bolt under headlight. idk either way its a clean rustless rex for $240 bux :)

thats all i wanted to hear really. but its a project dont judge car by the front hood and bumper... by far it needs new paint but besides that pass side needing a new fender light and bumper it dont need shit and its not bad way to spend 240 bux i guess.. idk ur help is helping
