The previous owner of my hatch got in a small front end, and the radiator support is kinda damaged and is throwing off the alignment of the whole front end, as i am trying to clean up the car and make it look half way decent, my question is:

Is the radiator support bolt on or does it have to be welded, I've found some replacements on eBay and I'm quite curious on if this is a DIY job... Thanks a million in advance for any feedback.

it's spot welded on so you have to drill the spot weld's to take it off and then you can bolt the new on good luck man

Big job, not a DIY

There must be quality welding as well as alignment. Good chance the car needs to go on a body shop rack to be pulled a bit to to line things up properly

Here's a shot of when my rad support was replaced

JUST REPLACE IT MAN

WITH NEW ONE
OR USED BUT IN GOOD CONDITION

aha

Get it done the right way and take it to a body shop. if it has some front end damage the car is going to have something else tweaked.
