Default Got in accident - replacing parts - have a few questions!

I recently rear-ended someone, and smashed up my hood, fender, headlight, and grill, it hit my radiator and it now has a small hole in it too.

I found this website http://hondaautobodypartstore.com - is it any good?

On the site I can get a Hood, Fender, Grill, and Radiator for $350 shipped to my door, is that a good price?

I found a stock replacement headlight on ebay for about $40 shipped..

Would I be better of going to a junk yard?

Any Suggestions?

If your junkyard is a pick-a-part style yard, then maybe. Otherwise, that's a damn good price for all the parts. However, I have no knowledge of the website or the fitment of their parts.

Does anyone know if a 97 hood will fit my 95?

yes it will, the only difference between the two is that the 96-97 accords did not have the H emblem on the hood, instead its in the grille. good luck with the rebuild.

I am going to go to a junkyard on tuesday, I hope to find some parts there.

I forgot, I also need a new battery, it was cracked open, I removed it immedietly, suprisingly after the accident the car ran for 3-4 days before completly shitting out on me.

If I don't find parts at the yard, ill just oder from that site.

did it bend the radiator support? the one thing you want to watch out for if you buy non OEM parts is fitment, junkyard or ebay would be you're best bet for honda parts, you get Honda parts without the Honda price

I think the radiator support my be damaged as well, I am not really sure yet, I am waiting to have it looked at until I get money, all the parts that I am replacing first are visual, then I will see what else needs to be done.
