wooo that looks pretty bad. if theres frame damage that'll take awhile to fix without proper tools if not then its not too bad. just replace body fenders, hood, lights(whole asembley) or just go with the cool mean halogen eye mod saves money radiator sapport, new impact bar and foam if u want too and some welding and ur good. its lots of hours of work but worth it espacially if u know how to do body work and collison work.

Its not too bad actually. you need a bumper, hood, fenders, radiator support, headlight bracket bumper and support. You can put all the parts on yourself and have a shop paint it. Or you can do a sil80 conversion right now if you like the way they look
