(((((((( my Honda


Hi there,
i was lookin for some help.
i recently was in a accident and it looks like i have mostly front radiator damage and hood bump ect. not really worried bout that.
i am more worried about the bout the engine bay damage and radiator support.
was lookin for some oppions on how bout i should go about this.
called around to some body shops and jus by discription there sayin between 700 to 1000.
think it is possible or worth tryin to fix it my self or worth going to shop?
thanks for your help and time jus wont gettt myyy hondda baccck.
cant beleive shitt happen.

 

ouch. What happened?

 

Definitely fixable. Just depends if it's worth it to you or not.

 

mindin my business in the slow lane cruising in some lane and some ladie swerved in front of me to aviod another car and slammed on her brakes.
sound like the police report and stuff is putting her at fault.
ya looks fixable, but any ideas to keep it least costly??

 

well if you need a new rad and you want to keep it OEM style, I would go with performance radiator, they are all over the country and they have great products!

 

If she is at fault, just take it to a reputable shop and let them do it - unless you are looking to pocket some cash

 

No rad damage drove it 15 miles after accident drove straight an no leaks or fuilds.
Ya would like a little pocket cash to get this swapp going.lol. na just tryin to get it going again miss it.
I was told that the incraunce would prolly call it totaled and give me cash and i either can buy it back or jus keep all the cash. but its bluebooked at 1700 but i payed 2400 for it.
Just hate to loose money on it that why i am trying to fix it with lowest cost as possible.

 

something like that happened to my cousin car and it cost about $800 from the shop and that's not including paint, just new fenders and bumper.

 

I would have them fix the damage done to the support/frame/etc. As far as providing you qith parts you can get those online or at your local junkyard.

 

Ya i think that is what i am going to do.
think the car was to low for frame damage i hope.
just lookin at the support area right now maybe a littel more.
thanks all for your help. will keep you all posted.

 

just junkyard it...if stuffs not lining up you could use a slide hammer to do some "straighting" but its not exactly a gentle precision tool...
