In the pictures how much do you guys think this will cost me for a body shop to straiten out???

 

Another pic.

 

A lot, i crashed mine just like that, a little less then that, it took me a day on the frame machine to fix it at my shop, but i donno hoe much a shp would charge for that, there is a lot of **** underthere that u need, reinforcement, light bar, bumper, fenders, all the littel brackets and whatnot, your best bet, is get used parts and take as much as you can off of the donor car, clean up the parts and what not, and take it to a shop for a estimate, my guess, 2 grand at the least.....

 

lets just leave it at...beyond totaled...do what i did...get a new one! lol i got into an accident and damaged the same front clip/corner section only on the pasenger side. The body shop I went to wanted 2500 to replace the fender, front clip, front bumper renforcer bar, and to straighten the frame part of it and all those little stupid renforcement bars, and paint. And that was a deal, b/c ive done business with the guy before. I went to another guy and he wanted 3000grand...so i picked up a shell for $285, a little rust but i can handle rust, so if your not beyond amazingly attached i suggest buying a shell and transfering everything over. Also a very good chance to drop the heat and a/c, new rear, new tranny and maybe a new engine?
anyways good luck in whatever your decision is...

btw those estimates included them painting a cowl hood that i would of provided...and tie rods and a new steering box...

 

I just want the body shop to straighten out this part of the car.

 

u cant just straighten that part, you have to fix the whole thing, and you hae to have all teh new used parts on disposal for fitting and aligning so you know that you pulled it to teh right specs, thats how i do it on the frame rack at work man, and thats how its done, your top rail is way down, your suspension is out of whack prolly, so get a estimate, see what you can do, or get a new car and transplant everything over...if i didnt work at a shop and knew how to do this, i woulda got another body....

 

Ok thanks i wasnt sure if u where talking about just fixing the body or fixing the body with the cost of the fender hood and frontend. if my suspension was out of whack wouldent the car shimmy when driven?

cars tottaled, go get yourself a rolling chassy and transfer it all over to the new car

 

That piece you have highlighted is an impact asorbing structual member. It did its job, now its no good. You need to replace it.

 

gmtech is right. it looks like the metal has kinked and any time the metal has kinked it has to be replaced.if the body shop doesnt replace it, the car will be a liabilty risk.

 

its a loss, but try and get a estimate....you never know
