Unhappy front body part repair 2g tl 2003

I've been very struggling to find a cheap way to fix my car(2g tl Anthracite Met NH643M)

Recently I crashed left/front part of my car on a low pole while I was reversing with an angle

Now I have to replace front bumper driver side front fender and bumper reinforcement

I got an quote from Delay 550+150 shipping for fender,bumper+etc

but the problem is that I found out that I need to pay extra 800 dollars to paint my parts at local paint shop

so I've been web surfing trying to find used parts

but I only find few, and they all refused to ship...

What would be a Good way to find used parts?

I live in Urbana-IL and 2 1/2 hours away from Chicago

Your help will be very grateful

Thanks

It all depends on how the salvage yard ships them and how they package them. You will still have to have the parts painted.

To be honest there are plenty of places online that you can find good body parts on. magauto.com you search under Honda. or autopartswarehouse.com is a good one. And with these places you usually won't have a problem with the parts being damaged.

I messed my front bumper up pretty bad too. Do you think I should just replace the entire thing or maybe I can salvage it?
