lol, was it described as "light front end damage"??

is that the one you put the coilovers on? if so, looks like you've done a fair bit of work fixing it!!!

its a 95 honda civic and my brother bought it off a mates girlfriend, basically i went round there and said yes i can fix that so he bought it. it wasnt hard at all just a new front panel and inner wing panel, then wing, bonnet, bumper and all that bollocks. plus yes its now the one with the coil overs

one of my mates had the same civic an he stuff it good an proper into someone else, managed to fix it up all good though. As long as its just the front that mashed up you can just replace the parts. It does look rather twisted though in the pic lol

a friend of mine does this aswell...

bought a corsa X14XE for ?150, with heavy front end damage, a week later it was fixed and sprayed, looks new.

he's been driving it around for months, and has sold it for ?950. Cost him ?0 to do.

but he is a sprayer working in a body shop..........

Manual labour is still cheaper than rational and analytical thought.
