Default Front end... welded??

OK, so I smashed up my front end on the '90 CRX a few weeks ago. Now I need to replace the radiator support. All of it. This includes the front frame pieces that start at each fender and go inward to each edge of the radiator. The radiator support "T" bolts onto these two pieces in the middle. The headlight braces and headlights also go inside these two pieces. Now, I know for a fact these two pieces are seperate from the rest of the frame, I can order them new seperately. My question is, does anyone know if these pieces are bolt in or welded? Thanx.

Hey, how much do you want for some of those front end parts? i.e. Core support, bumper support. Do you have fenders or a hood too? Headlights? Let me know your price!
