While you're working on the front end you can also work on engine stuff like rear and front main seals, clutch, oil pan gasket, mounts etc. Think of it as a good time to redo the car as you want.

Need more pics, man. Here's my take:I smoked a deer with my 02 Spec V, and it looked just like that except the damage was a little more focused on the passenger side of the front. It was barely below being totaled by my insurance company. $6.5k for repairs. So, if you can do it yourself and make a profit, great. But if your radiator mount is damaged like mine was, buckle up for a bumpy ride.

I just happened to come across your post... im going to give you my 2cents... most of the people that posted to this dont know what they are talking about... i have been fixing and selling salvage cars for 10 years.. i have fixed water flood i have even replaced half a car and put another clean half.. "probably the best thing to do" parts arent expensive just dont buy them at the dealer... you can get oem parts without buying them at the dealer. that accident doesnt even look like damage i can bet money it didnt damage the radiator... people here get scared because a little plastic is broken.. haha i could get that fixed for 500 bucks... i would first take it to a shop and see what they think not ask on a online forum what people think about something they know nothing about... what year is it whats the miles? ill buy it from you if the price is right. i can get you parts for that car easy or any car

Dragging up an old thread... oh well.

You see that giant puddle under the car? That's a busted radiator. When the radiator gets busted on a Sentra in an accident, the rad support is gone. When the rad support is gone, Sentras are toast. I know this cause I've seen many 00-06 Sentras suffer that exact fate. I guarantee you can't fix that for $500, even if the parts are out of a junkyard it'd be at least $1000, without paint. Bumper, hood, lights, grille, bumper support, rad support, radiator, possible frame mending. Even if you didn't make any money on the deal it'd be over $500.

I checked up on your threads. All you do is try to sell crap, and in the wrong sections no less, except a few questions about your G. Stick to that rather than waltzing in and telling several Sentra owners they don't know anything about their cars.

I just recently had front end damage to my 05 sentra se-r. repair cost was about $4k. new fender, hood, pass hl, bumber cover and supports, grill, radiator, radiator support, condenser, and more, plus paint. The damage didnt even look that bad. Just some insight to cost.
