Cut off the existing front clip, and JB kwik the new one on. You'll be beating neons and eclipse RS's in 15 minutes or less!

No, in all seriousness...you should probably take it to a body shop. DIY frame repair isn't the smartest thing in the world.

Take it to a body shop where they can properly pull the frame and get it straightened out for you.

Kinda OT: But my friend ran into the front end of his eg coupe with his 4 wheeler.. fucked things up. He tied the front end of his car to a rope and then pulled it with his work van.. works fine till this day
