Looks like you just need to replace; hood, driver side fender, grill, driver side headlight, and bumper. Those you can get for cheap, but if there's structural damage then much $$ will be spent. Hit n runs

yeah these are my beater wheels i got for free when i picked up an EG a few months back.. lol they are the only wheels i have right now with tread. i got a set of tires for my spoons wich ill swap out once they arrive. . but i kinda like the 16" on the ek rather than my 15" spoons.. but damn does the acceleration suck on these 16's... felt a hell ova lot better on the sw's. . as for what kind are they i have noooo idea.. the center caps are plastic wich reads akina? some knock off im sure.. but free wheels.. are a in my book.,. haahha

and as for what hit me.. it was a government city worker truck! those big yellow ones.. i duno if you guys have em down in the states.. but we do here in canada BC..

and thank god i ddnt have my damn sir lights w/retro HID's i just finished! i woulda cried when i went outside to see the damage.

hmm i HOPE they fix my hood.. cuz it actually been bent from under cuz my driver side engine mount broke.. soo it was hitting the hood before so it raised up. my friend was driving my car that time and he was a noob. soo i duno if they will change the hood if they actually see everything thru, but then again it does bend inward where i got hit a tad.... and as for the bumper i hope i getta new one.. the other side of it isnt cleared well and has buncha chips on it. .haha

oh and it wasnt a hit and run.. cuz the guy that hit my car saw ppl lookin at him cuz my alarm went off.. and he left me a note then came back once i was outside and talked to me.. he was pretty pissed haha
