If you guys had someone who wanted to buy the front crossmember/radiator support/hood latch holder thing, how much would you charge them?

I tried searching through the archives in the market place, but nobody has apparently ever sold one. Either that or I'm not calling it by the right name, which is quite possible. Basically, it's what the bumper and front fenders attach to.

Thanks

 

350-400 is going price for those usually assuming its in good shape. Thats for the whole support

 

Its the 'core support', some people will say radiator support, but really its core support

 

You can buy a new Taiwanese unit for $60, so maybe $150 for a properly removed OEM unit.

edit: assuming this is for a usdm Civic.

 

Wow, that's way more than I thought they'd be worth. Totally not saying you're wrong, as I said I've never seen one for sale, but let me make sure we're talking about the same thing.

Everything outlined in red right?

 

i payed 85 for mine shipped on ebay. and welded it in for free

 

Yep thats the core support, also thier is the bumper support in that pic.

When you replace your core support make sure you get that bumper support back on.


I had a great friend I knew for 8 years get hit head on at an estimated 55mph when someone ran the red light (he was starting to make a left turn). Since he didn't put the bumper support back in after he replaced the core support, he didn't even stand a chance. The other car a crown vick literally drove right threw his eg hatch, his hatch was crumpled to about 1/4th of actual size. If he had the bumper support his eg might have bounced back somewhere and he might still be here today.

R.I.P Sam McCrary, I love you.

 

Dang bro that sucks. I'm actually selling the whole unit to this kid. Everything I circled in red he's getting because his got jacked up in a minor front end col
