That sucks. If the frame is fine, just swap the front end out. Your pic is too small, so i can see what happened. But if you’re not at fault, then insurance should cover it. ---

That’s rough. Sorry to hear man. But as said above, if the frame is fine, then swap the panels (and rad support, etc.) Hope it turns out well. ---

i was not at fault 100% the first guy got charged for careless i was the thrid car … its up to insurence now if they are going to right off my car or not. . s15 front end will be a must on my car 100% but a s15 front end will cost with install im guessing 4000 + to paint my whole car another 2000 ball park price will be 6000 im not sure how much the s14 are worth . but i will keep you guys up to date ---

Best thing to hope for is that it is a write off… If I’m not wrong, you can buy back the car from the insurance company for about $150! Since there is no frame damage, spend $3000 and fix it (wouldnt u like a S14.5?!!) Obviously, you’re gonna get like $5000 for the from the insurance. So you would still be left with a chunk of cash. Just out of a 240 for a little while. ---

fak Albert that sux bro. if your ride is in good shape and very clean (which i thought it was) you can get alot of coin for your ride if the adjuster is fair. I got $12500 + taxes for mine a couple years ago cause it was very clean and the guy said in excellent shape, even though it was pretty much a bone stock SE. i bought it back, which cost me the taxes of the car (i was supposed to get $1500 in taxes, so $14000 total, but i bought the car back). i paid $6500 for the ride in 2002, so i fixed the ride and with the spoare cash i bought my old suspension and some other goodies. if u don’t like the adjusters offer, then don’t take it. after a month, they will give u top dollar. good luck man, I say keep it if u only bent the rad support, a new one can easily be welded on and i can give u a shop that worked on my car and will give u a good price. ---

That looks fixable to me. If you wern’t at fault there’s no way your insurance should write that off. …Hell your airbags didn’t even go off. Has an adjuster looked at the car yet? You can always do some quick repairs to make the damage less noticable. Either way, good luck! ---
