but the 2001 and 2002 Cobra models have been generally trouble free
I have a little trouble finding any credibility in an article that says they made 2002 Cobras.

That support brace that runs all around the front end (the one that the radiator support brackets bolt onto) is twisted all up, which is causing the pass. side fender to be pushed back into the door. That grey plastic piece that runs across the front end is also busted up. Looks like it might be cheaper to find a new body than to repair the damage

Man that sucks..you're right though. I wouldn't try and fix damage like that. My friend had a similar incident in a hatchback LX he just went out and got a good notchback body and swapped drivetrains. You're probably better off. I hope it's all back up and running ASAP. Good luck.
