    Oh no!

    My friends car. From what he told me he locked up his brakes and slid down a hill. We're going to some body shops tomorrow for an official diagnosis. Here's a list of what I can see:
    Bumper cover 33.89
    Bumper energy absorber 16.50
    Mounting bracket 9.22
    Front fender 23.79
    Grill assembly 13.73
    Right fron tinner fender 5.36
    (Maybe) radiator support 49.99
    Side turn signal assembly 5.49
    Right front turn signal 19.53
    Radiator 70.79

    Total: 248.29

    Plus the hood and the other stuff I don't know the names of.



    Do body shops give free estimates?

      I was just curious, where are the replacement parts being purchased?

        Those seem like crazy cheap prices. I didn't check on shipping though. The ad is in the upper right.

            He said he was going to call around, but from experience they are WAY over priced.
            $35 for an interior handle (Exact dealer price, coincidentally)
            $75 for a bumper cover
            $75 for an intake manifold
            $75 for an exhaust manifold

            Didn't even ask for some of the parts we've "acquired". I'm willing to bet a TCU would run $100 and the PT6 I have my eye on would be about the same.

              Damn those are pretty pricey.I was just throwing it out there so maybe you could come across some color matched parts to save on painting prices.It sucks that that happened to the ride.Hopefully no one was injured!Good luck with everything.
