Damaged Front End EG
Hey guys, I've been looking at an EG with front end damage, just wondering if it's worth it.
It's a base model without A/C for $300

i got my sedan with a perfectly fine front end for 200 bucks. Your overpaying.

Well I guess the car's in Alberta are more expensive than Ontario. LOL

maybe. But it looks like whatever it hit (looks like a cement wall) it hit it hard. I'd be worried about the frame being bent all out of shape.

Looks like it hit on the drivers side. Its repairable. Get a tree and a chain and your can straighten it out. Most of the s**t that moved is weak metal. It can be pulled back to normal. If its a cheap daily driver, put a front bumper and call it a day. Just make sure the radiator didnt get hit. 300+a front bumper is a good deal if youre not a pefectionist. Id rock that all day lol

I wouldnt do it. its more then a front bumper. your gonna need a core support, bumper reinforcement, fenders, and thats only if it didnt bend the frame rails. then you would need a frame puller or a body shop. id say no. i know im in the states but i bought my sedan for 800 with a straight body and frame with a running motor for 800. id look around. mechanical and suspensions easier to fix then frames unless you work/own a body shop
