Front end crash!

Rolling down to street war 6, with beemers, benz, bently's, nissan, honda, chevy, VW, subaru's and supra's! In line with a bunch of car and a r32 stop almost to 0 and a bunch of cars crash. Mine happened to be one of them. An STI in front of me waited to long and down shifted hard, so i could not see him brake. Anyway i hit him and my front end is messed up. Hood is bent, bumber is f'ed up, grille is done for, and some insides are bent(minor stuff). Any available options for repair, please help!

The front bumper,grill, and hood are fairy cheap to replace. Should run you about $250-$300. However, they would still need to be painted; unless you can get them from a part-out. Is there any head light damage? If so, to replace your OEM's will be costly ($300-$600). There are a few sets up for sale in the 5th Gen section that you might want to hop on.

As far as engine damage, hard to say...Got pics?

WAIT DUDE, was this like a little down the street from Stockton? I think I saw all of you trying to cross the street. I was in a black Max, in between a black Z and a silver G. We left Street Wars early because the sorority girls wanted to charge us $10 to get in.

I doubt you noticed me with all of the commotion, but I saw a whole bunch of cars pulled over to the side of the road, and a group of people like trying to stop traffic or something.

Was that you?

That sucks man.

And Street Wars was OK, we managed to walk around for about an hour before the girls caught us, so we got a chance to see everything. There were a few cool cars, but nothing like OMG

Man their was so many good cars. That miata turboed and gutted. The EVO'S were annoying(so many). The JDM right hand drive supra, 240, and evo. Also the r34 skyline, and r33 wide body, and white datsun. Also some 350z's and g35's. Lack of turboed ones but one was making 663whp. Their was some sick cars there. Most came later on, u must have missed some of them.

the actual headlight (not bulbs, ballasts, wiring) = headlight assembly, so basically what you see on the outside of the car.
