Unsure of what i need to do to fix 95 civic ex.
A week or so ago I got in a wreck and hit someone from behind and messed the front of my car up. It runs same as before but the bar inside where the hood would latch is bent and I'm not sure what to do. It's seems to be spot welded together and I'm not positive but it looks like it's all one piece. Here is a pic so you know what I'm talking about , I was just wanting to know if it's easily fixable and what i should do. thanks http://i177.photobucket.com/al...0.jpg
looks like your radiator support is bent pretty badly, and yes it is spot welded on, most any body shop can replace it, here is a link to one, i just did a quick google search, im sure you can find one for cheaper... good luck

Try a block of wood against the front of the engine (make sure it touches as much area as possible so as not to damage the engine) and a small one against the support, then put a honda jack between the wood blocks and slowly open the honda jack while gently beating the support with a rubber mallet. It will go back out to where it's supposed to be if you are careful. I've fixed worse by using this method when I didn't have the money for a "proper" repair. It looks like you might have to wedge those AC lines out of the way and drop the radiator down a bit though, good luck!
My coupe was in an accident before I bought it. Not nearly as bad though. You can grab a new front crossbar from an OEM honda place for like $100 I think.

Here's a link. You want part #3. Slap that baby on and youre front end will bolt right back up
