I’ll spare the details, because it sucks simply put, and I get worked up anytime I talk about it so…I’ll let the pictures do the talking, and no it didn’t happen because of horsepower or a burnout blah blah blah. ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v348/BigEd2006/0313091626a.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v348/BigEd2006/0313091626a.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v348/BigEd2006/0313091816a.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v348/BigEd2006/0313091816a.jpg) ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v348/BigEd2006/0313091816b.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v348/BigEd2006/0313091816b.jpg) If you want to help, buy my LS1, 4l60e OR 10-BOLT rear-end.

Gonna cost at least $2000. Hood= $400, you might as well get a fiberglass one now. Fneder=$100 used, front end =$300, paint=$800+ish, headlight assembly=$100. It looks pretty bent up too, but that stuff is easy to get back into shape. All you need to worry about is getting the headlight mounted nice and square. The fender/hood/front end will have enough support from the other contact areas, you can just fab something up for the bad corner. ---

> [@LZ](#): > > :lol: you killed my old car ☹ > > No front bumper support will do that… Going by the pic it looks like he hit something a lot higher than the bumper support. It alomost looks like it hit about an inch below the headlight, there are no visible scrapes below that part. ---

> [@LZ](#): > > :lol: you killed my old car ☹ > > No front bumper support will do that… Actually the corner of her bumper hit dead square just about in the middle of the headlight cover, it was a 98 ford ranger pickup. Its not dead either, still runs just fine, just a little beat up. All the weight reduction however to remove things such as the cruise control and AC which may have been unkind to the battery. ---
