Recently involved in a little accident. Here are some pics:
[Did not resize to show detail]
I know its possible to use bumper fill on that crack and about 80% of the white scrapes on my bumper will buff out. But then again, ive been looking at the Flyryde Type S bumper anyway. Also, i just plan to push my headlight and bracket the plastic in place. As for my hood, you can see that it crumpled just above the drivers side headlight, so its garbage to me. So i was thinking:
[Flyryde] Type S Front Bumper
[Flyryde] F/G Evo Hood
* Having a little trouble getting ahold of Chris [Blacktibs] at the moment and currently wouldnt mind placing an order on these items.
Sound like a good way to go?

That sucks about the accident but thats awesome that your turning it into better parts. Its nice when a part fails and you replace it with an aftermarket part smile.gif

if the brackets on the headlight are broken.. you can more than likely pick up a replacement on ebay for about 50 bucks..
as for the rest.. go for it! minor accidents are a great way to start the ball rolling on modding the exterior of your car.

You must have gotten somebody good. I rear ended somebody on the other corner (after they got broadsided right infront of me) and I ripped off their rear bumper.. and only scratched my headlight and rubbed the paint off of the bumper.
