As I mentioned last week, I had a small accident. I rear-ended another car and this is the result.
I took the car to a couple of shops and the cheapest estimate was $950!
I’m going to have to do it myself. The radiator is trashed. It’s the one I spent four hours on in December 2002 installing. The bumper is destroyed as well.
I’m ordering a new radiator from the place I got the last one. Just $99 delivered (versus $175 locally). I found a bumper in a local salvage yard for $150. I haven’t picked it up yet, but was told it had “a big scratch” on it. Since it’s highly unlikely to match colorwise, I’m not too concerned about a scratch. Another salvage yard had two unscratched bumpers, but they wanted $275 each.
The bumper looks to be a challenge. The radiator I can handle.
Wish me luck.
