new bumper cover
new foam bumper support
new headlight housing
paint unless you find one pre painted
might have to mess with the radiator support depending on what happened to the headlight housing. If the blastic just busted off the mounting screws good news. If the headlight pushed in the support some...gotta pull it but still not truely a big deal.

My suggestion? either go aftermarket bumper cover or get a used undamaged one. factory bumpers are alot of money from the dealers. Headlight housing? buy used...like 100-150 bucks.

If i were looking for the parts? 350+ paint and labor if you don't feel like doing this easy job. If you do things by the book and use the dealer? 800-1000 np

 

bleh, i don't know how to post pictures, just follow the link to the photo album.
the basic scenario: suv#1 pulled onto the road and cut off a bmw, the bmw slammed on the brakes and came to a halt, suv#2 behind the bmw hit his brakes but didn't even come close to stopping in time, suv#2 hit the bmw hard, the bmw was pushed into suv#1 and was sandwiched, i was behind suv#2 and didn't have a chance to stop in time to avoid hitting suv#2 which had gone 35mph to 0 immediately after hitting the bmw, i hit suv#2 at about 15mph, i only scratched hit tow hitch and you can see the damage we sustained. no one was hurt and everyone remained in fairly good spirits.
it looks to me that we'll only have to replace the plastic bumper cover, the styrofoam cushion underneath, and the right headlight assembly. any crash verterans care to estimate the costs of repair here?

 

the police wrote up a report that will be sent to the insurance company and the car owner's lease company. i don't know if i will be able to get involved with the repairs since the car is leased. any suggestions?
i assume that my insurance won't be affected if i take care of this out of pocket and don't file a claim, right?

 

one word of advice:
don't drive an integra ls with 3yr old stock michelins and warped rotors like you would with your type r.

 

I have the complete left side headlight for sale

 

it's the right headlight (passenger side).

 

I can't see your pictures, so I don't know the extent of your damage - but I also recently had my front-right damaged. Here are some prices...

Front Bumper Cover: 273.52
Front Air Dam: 405.23
Light Housing: 349.72
Hood Panel: 407.01

Then there is some labor, painting, and blending...

 

Since its a lease, u have to go through the insurance co. or you might have some serious problems when you return the car.
I know of an instance where a guy had an accident and fixed it himself... he ended up buying the car out cux they gave him all sorts of BS about it.
I guess you'll have to pay his deductible. $500 or $1000.
**** happens.

 

SORRY I HAVE THE RIGHT SIDE HEAD LIGHT

 

Put a 5th headlight in the hole. Looks like the perfect size.

Really though, you can probably do it yourself. Doesn't look that bad. Good luck.
