wreck! smashed hood and crushed radiator
ya so after 2 1/2 years i actually got in a wreck in the cl, my dumbass rear ended a van because that fucker stopped real quick and so the hood is smashed in a little bit, but the grill survived somehow, but i dont think the hood is salvagable, so anyone got an extra hood possibly or know someone who does or can get one for cheap?? The frame bar or whatever in front of the radiator pushed badck a little bit and my radiator is leaking, im sure its fucked but no prob , my headlights are also pushed back a little bit, but otherwise i dont see too much damage, my bumper survived with minor scratches, good thing its slammed, any help would be appreciated, ill try and post pics

ya its not that bad, i actually just bent the radiator sore support out to what it originally looked like , i removed the radiator and it looks like the top cap is cracked,, i was going to take it to a local radiator shop but all the ones i called are closed on Sat., should i buy a new one just in case or let the radiator shop do repairs and test it to make sure it is ok?,, i think now i just need a lead on a hood, where did u get a new hood from? i think ill just email everyone in the usa who has a hood on car-parts.com, any other websites?

how much does the dealer want for one? 350 plus shipping might be just as expensive as dealer? who knows.
