Trying to fix some front end damage and was wondering how I should go about it. The damage seems to be after the struts but I dont think it's going to straighten out. I dont want to buy an entire front clip from the firewall on.

Any body people out there got any ideas? If a shop could do it reasonably priced to straighten it out and put in the radiator support that would be the best case. As far as everything else its well within my means.



This is the really bad side



Other side

Honestly, I would think you would have a shop do something like this. I do some on the side body work, and that is ALOT of work. That front core support and raditor support will cost you some bucks thoe. I know that if the frame is bend, then time on a frame rail is even bigger bucks.. fixing it yourself, unless you are a really skilled body man, i think would be out of the question. Now this only IMO.. other people might say different but thats a pretty good smack. Were you in it? Hope everything is ok...
