wow thats some bad luck man , i'd probably end up getting new fiberglass pieces getting them repainted and everything else fixed. Take it to a autobody shop, i wouldn't recomennd dooing it urself if you have no idea what 2 do.

Expesially if you had fitment problems in the past, or get a new kit that fits a++ so tha you can do it urself. Everything else on the car is undamaged? Got pics?? :pic:

well i think i screwed up my left wheel its like touching the fenderwhell right now when i move the wheel i dont know whats going on . ya i dont know much about reglassing ubt taking it to a body shop would be like 5x more expensive and im not going to buy another front again erebuni took like 2 months to get it in right...

well this is what i think im going to im going to try to like glue the pieces together w/ fiberglass resin that i have here sand it down do it again sand it primer it sand it and hopefully i can get the stuff looking right for a new paint. i got a friend who is going to help repaint the kit but i think ima see if i can do a differnt color mayb .. but now i think im selling the car w/ the vside skirts on

Sorry to hear about your misshap, but maybe you should save some money and enter yourself into an Advanced driving course.

Just a thought. :roll:

dude, what part of ohio are you from? i swear i've seen your car before.

just remember murphy's law: anytime you try to do something cool, you get kicked in the ass for it.

i think you def need to get it taken in and looked at....i know a place in fairfield if you live near there...i think they do body work

your strut is probably pounded. that's what happened to mine when i hit the curb head on. you might want to get the struts checked out at sears for free before you try fixing the body.

yes, i reccomend finding an auto body shop. they can repair just about anything. you just need the money. it might be cheaper than ordering replacements.
