Post Need help with 92 prelude head light assembly clearance. With pic.

Can someone give me the measurement from the top brace to the top of the bumper for the left headlight opening clearance? ( see picture ) My car received some front end damage avoiding a head on collision with a deer. I have a replacement head light assembly but the opening seem to be to tight for it to fit in there. Thanks for your help.

Probably not the answer you want, but just have a body shop fix it. they have all of those specs in their computers, which is part of what you pay for by having them do the work. Looks like you need a new rad support, and new drivers fender as well, so there is probably more damage lurking back there to make it all line up again.

Helms manual, page 20-74 "Frame Repair Chart"

If you're looking to bend back any of the sub frames I'm not sure if you'll find those measurements so you'll want to head to the bone yard. It'll likely be some months before I pop the bumper off of my car.

@adamthc4thgen may be able to offer info, I know he retrofitted his own bumper support and welded it on as his was out of wack.
