Best idea would be to take it to a professional, honestly.

On here, you'll get way too many opinions and no solid estimate.

It's going to depend how well you want it done. It will depend on if you want OEM or Certi-Fit type parts to be used.

If you want it done cheap, it won't be fast.
If you want it done fast, it won't be cheap.

Good luck.

hehe dude not everyone on this forum lives near you, and you dont have your location listed in your profile so its kinda hard to tell you a place that sell parts for cheap... any near by junkyard or scrapyard is your best place if you dont wanna go dealership

its not just the del sol thats welded in 99% of hondas are
dont do ebay, i have one in my car and it was messed up from the start. stay OEM on this type of part.
but everything ebay is a great place to find used oem parts or even craigslist or junkyards.

u gotta drill out the spot welds on the rad support, if u look at the ends ull see like lil holes, that arent all the way filled in, u need to drill those spots with a spot weld drill bit, if u dont understand a lot have a professinal have taken out and put a new1 in or else ur whole front end look like **** and the end of the day.
