Help: Rear Suspension Components
Here's the situation: I was in a hit and run which damaged the rear passenger side of my car. I'm trying to determine whether or not to claim the accident on my insurance because my policy will increase in price dramatically.
I went to a couple body shops today and was quoted around $2k. The catch is, they might find some suspension damage once they start working on it which will dramatically raise the price.
Does anyone have any experience with the rear suspension parts on the first gen? I know aftermarket control arms are under $300, but do we have control arms, a arms, knuckles, what? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

gimme your email, i'll send you a scan of my repair bill from when my CL was hit in the right rear. I was T-boned right at the wheel by a Buick doing about 20mph, it damaged the lower quarter panel, lower rear portion of the door... and some suspension damage as well as the wheel itself. I'll try to find the pics of the car when it was hit as well.

Thanks, sum. Sounds quite similar to what happened to me. That would really be helpful. Thanks again.
EDIT: Sumkid came through with the scans last night and they are exactly what I was looking for. Thanks, bro
