Seriously need some help here...got cutoff and nailed a car
Ok so i was doing a road test on my camaro today while running a tech2 so i can fix my fans and i was cutoff by a student at MCC. My fender is rippled and pushed back, rubbing my door and my front nose is trashed, the chin GFX came out untouched though.
I was pulling back in and saw a car pull up to the end of the lane so i glanced down to look at my speed and when i looked up she was halfway infront of me, locked up my wheels, slid to the right and nailed her when she decided to hit her brakes. Needless to say im not too thrilled about the situation i finally get the car going and someone decided to set me back a few notches. This just HAD to happen after i dropped close to $800 for a suspension overhaul including new tires...
Sfeeny is hooking me up with a fender for cheap which i cannot explain how grateful i am for it but he doesnt have a front nose i can pick up, money is tight but i cant stand to see my car like this, can anyone hook me up with an 89+ front clip for a reasonable price?? I would go with an earlier front but they dont fit the gfx of my model year, Please for the sake of my car can somebody help out another fbody owner? Ill go damn near anywhere in the valley for it i just need a nose in good shape

if you could get that crack closer together somehow you could probably epoxy it sand it and put just a little mud on it, i know how ya feel though about 2 months ago a jeep compass slammed on its brakes just passed the railroad tracks on rittenhouse, stopped way short and i slid into the back of it with the corner of my car, had to replace the fender, hood, and fix a small crack in the front. as for the fender ru

There are a few pick a part yards in Phx that have some third gen Camaros. I went to ecology last week and I think there were a few decent ones there. I scored the lower front ground effect for $7.

Re: Seriously need some help here...got cutoff and nailed a car
i dont wanna hunt around if i can avoid it. i work 40 hours a week and take 16 credit hours at MCC so playing the JY game gets fairly tiring pretty quick
She dinged my hood too but i just pulled it back up and it seems to be sitting right now

I think I found you a free front bumper cover. On: www.ls1tech.org It is in the western classified section under free 3rd gen stuff. I use the same screen name there and I posted on the thread, so if you cant find it try looking for my most recent posts. Good luck, man!
