Lower Radiator Support

Does anyone know of a shop in the North Jersey area that i can get my lower radiator support replaced and not spend an arm and a leg in the process?? I need to get this done ASAP as mine has broken away completely at the crossmember.

anything above $500, but if i dont even have to go that far that would be even better, because im already gonna have to kick out $500 to get the motor dropped.

Honestly if you have the patience I would do it yourself, tbh it's just more pain in the *** than actually technically hard. it's just removing all the front bumper cover, support, and headlights, drilling all the spotwelds *dimples* and then you can hire a local guy or rent a welder to do it yourself. then just reverse the process and your good to go! Hope this helps!

i really do want to do it myself to be honest with you, but the mixed reviews of the level of pain in the ***isity(lol) have me to the point where id just pay to get it done. But if its just the matter of taking off the bumper etc, and then just cold chiseling it off. That doesnt seem like its to diffucult.

if You can make it to Massachusetts. considering the support is around $265 for a legit OEM one...I'll get it done for you around $470 We weld it perfectly and everything. but I suggest you bring a friend's car too, cause we have no where for you to chill around the shop area. ... PM me.
