I got in a wreck, I need advice
I recently got in a wreck tonight. I was going fast through a turn. By the look of it, I know I have to replace my fender and my left side brake assembly. I have learn a costly lesson. my question is where can I find a whole left front assembly? that means the brakes, axles, ect.
the only good side to this is me deciding to upgrade to a 99-00 front end. a down side is, it is gonna cost me and delay my winter project.

true but cars in junkyards are there because of accidents. i would go to autozone or your local parts store for parts and oem/keystond for the fender.

I would probably go with a remanufactured axle and get the front hubs from a junkyard. Might as well upgrade to big brakes while you are at it. Go with the front hubs from either an EX or 99-00 SI. I got a complete rear disc conversion for $275, so I would imagine that the fronts would be in the same ballpark.

Make sure you didnt do any frame damage esp if you hit that hard. The junkyard is your best bet really just because it will be cheaper than a new one plus some give you a warranty.
