It all depends how bad the damage actually is, not the over exaggerated version you tell us. Post pics if you can get them. If the frame of the car is bent, go ahead and part it out because it will only cause him trouble.

really just a new radiator support huh...as i said nothing in the front is salvageable except for tranny(shot!) and motor..and his little bumper lights haha...the frame is mildly bent but not too bad...the reason he got no insurance is because he didnt have his license when he bought the car so he got insurance for his girl only..when he got his license he wanted insurance for the both of them so he cancelled insurance that he had to get sum new kind for both..he didnt have insurance for like a week when it happened...i appreciate the help from the people who are willing to listen..but to those flamin f@gs...who just wanna talk trash and not help out when all i asked was a question..blow me..i mostly know about 240's..i have no idea about preludes..so yuk yuk yuk

that should probably be left up to he insurance company, if the car is salvagable it won't be totaled, if its totaled, then part it out
