Bent Subframe Damage FTL

I found out that my subframe is bent pretty bad from a previous accident before i owned the car So i took it to the body shop and was told ill be waiting at least 3-4 weeks before they can even look at it. I did however find a shop that is willing to do it now I just need to find the correct subframe. Does anybody know what subframes would work in a 97 2.2? Like if an accord subframe would work, what years and models? I searched and nobody seems to know...

the CL subframe seems to be set wider than the accords. We discussed that in the latest cocoa thread, the traction bar setup that would fit the accord wouldn't fit the CL because the bolt holes where it would line up are too far out, thus i make the assumption that the CL's subframe is a bit wider.

But cocoa has the 3.0 chassis. and the accord traction bar is for 4 cylinder chassi models.

the reason why im not sure dainfammus is because cocoa had the 3.0 and i have a 2.2...
