Halp! Need parts! (5.5er's)
 

Hey all,

Got in a little fender-bender with Bambi about an hour ago. Looks like I'll be needing some parts. ASAP preferably...

As it stands, it's looking like I'm going to need the following:

- Passenger headlamp housing
- Passenger side fender

I'm not going to ask for a hood, because I know the shipping is outrageous. I'll update this if I find anything else that's not repairable.

Thanks everyone.

theres a nice carbon fiber hood on ebay right now.would look real nice on that thing :0

Yes, a CF hood would look nice...but it's beyond my budget ATM.

I've, luckily, got a spare hood laying around I can use for the time being. The problem is, that hood has to go back on another car at some point.

i can check brandywine for you bro. we got a local yard

If you would, that'd be great. :D

Not too many yards around here stock any cars over 95/96.

Interested in that busted headlamp when you get a new one.

That headlamp is toast. The whole housing is destroyed...not just the clear plastic cover.

You might have better luck finding the parts using car-part.com

I've been skimming over Car-Parts, Parts Bin, and eBay. I've found some. But I didn't think it'd hurt to ask here, either.

Na man I just want the low beam reflector to do a mock up of some projector retros, if that is still whole you can rip it out, all i want

Oh, I gotcha. Well, that shouldn't be a problem. Just give me a few days to find myself a new headlamp. ;)

too bad i couldn't find these when i ran into bambi a few months ago. picked up a pair for 300....god damn

does it have to be in white?

Wow. Those definitely were not on eBay when I was looking around last night. Or I just glanced over them somehow. Good looking out. :D

I'd prefer it...but if the price is reasonable enough, I have no complaints about the color.

if you go to your local body shop you should be able to get a new hood and fender pretty cheap, when i bought mine it needed a whole front clip and i ordered a new hood for it and it was only 40 bucks.....but thats with e coat crap.....and last time i checked i think fenders were like 36 bucks.....but then again i get a employee discount on the parts

SCMAX100 for a hood, short drive

Bump.

I just wanted to thank everyone for the help. This is one of the reasons I love being part of the org. :D

Talked to my buddy who's been doing body work for a little over 15 years today. He told me that he can get the hood and fender looking good as new. So it looks like I won't be needing the fender after all.

However, I'm going to continue to look for a headlight, as obviously, no amount of bodywork will fix that.

I managed to salvage some parts off of the busted lamp, so I'll be posting up any spare parts I have for sale in this thread. I may end up having a few things left over after I get everything done.
