Got in an accident too...

Figures, I get my KENNY P license plate in the mail after waiting for months... when my car is ****ed up.
I went to the junkyard with Tom today, no LHS hoods or anything... then we went body shop hoppin'... not much luck there either. Maaco is calling me back tomorrow morning to let me know how much they want to fix it.

So far the only place to buy the hood is from the dealer for $470 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

Man Kenny, you change your mind about cars more than I change my underwear. Which is a lot. Sick fawkers! Anyway I would fix the car and be happy with what you have for now. Save up a bunch of money and then get a real nice newer car. Glad to hear your ok though.

Maaco called me, they want $1,300 for everything using used parts. I don't have a problem with used parts except for lights, they said there is a chance the lights could be discolored and faded... so we worked out a deal.

He's going to subtract the grille from the $1,300, so now it's down to ~$1,100 and whatever the lights were gonna cost him (no idea) and use my parts. I just ordered a prepainted black grille and all four lights for $490, not bad.

just get brand new lights. They are easy to find. Just go to ebay and get OEM ones. They don't take much work to put on. I did that with my sandblasted ones on old my van.

I did //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif I'm going to have the body shop install them though... last time we did my headlights one side was crooked, and we could not find a solution. I'll just let the **** body shop be responsible for it when they're crooked.
