Icon3 Radiator Support Question

Hi Guys! I'm new to this site my friend referred me to come here to ask about my problem. Well first off i drive a 93-95 Honda Del Sol Si. Last week i rear ended someone while on my way to work because the road was slippery. I wrecked my whole front the bumper, fenders , lights, Hood and my Windshield. My friend said that my radiator support was bent and needed to be replace. My question is how much would it be to replace the radiator support, and what is the cheapest way? I live in the San Francisco bay area, does anyone know a good spot to get this fixed or know a good junk yard. Please help if you know by e-mailing my honda tech acc!!! Thanks in advance

^^ that.
do your self a favor and stay oem and get every thing before you weld it in just so it lines up perfectly.

^What they said but ur would need some tools to do that, IDK what ur experience/skill level is but a few body shops r still reasonable if u can't do it. IDK if there is a u-pull-it in San Fran but that would b the cheapest place to get parts it u can find them.

well you can get it at a junk yard idk how much it would be though it pretty much depends on the junk yard, i wouldnt know of any websites but you can google it and see what you get..and check ebay for head lights bumper and whatever you need if your on a budget. as far as tools you need a welder and simple tools to remove and put on the head lights bumper ect. but i dont know your welding skills, so if you dont know how to weld just ask someone that knows that could do you the favor. its simply cut off your bad support and weld in the new one where you cut the old one. then just bolt in the rest but make sure it even and straight with everything before you weld

I would make friends with as many honda ppl as I could and ask them for any and all assistance if I was u. That's gonna b ur best bet and cheapest thing to do if u don't want to use a body shop.
