i need help. car wrecked. got into accident

last week i had a little accident. now my bumper has a nice hole through it. the left front light is still fine but the plastic part that is bolted to the car is cracked. n hood is dented. now i wanna save up by not spending all the money from the insurance. so u think it be cheep to buy a painted bumper from the dealer and get replacement hood n grill?????????????????
if i were to fix car at a shop. i'd say about $2900+....
wut do u guys think?????????????????????????????? ill go for a clean nice kit(not racing, cuz dad pissed off at me.. don't want to **** him off by getting a kit that makes him think i've been racing n stuff)

hey wassup man...i totally know wut u mean..differene is im the one at fault in my accident...so i have to use my own money...i would seriouslly get a kit instead of replacin the bumper..cuz the bumper from the dealer will probablly cost u around 400-500 i think...instead of gettin the bumper why not just get a full body kit for bout the same price..maybe a tad bit higher...thas just my 2 cents

cause then you have to paint it to match.. an thats alot more than a new stock bumper that you can order with your color already on

NOT ANOTHER ACCIDENT[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/IMG]I really feel for ya but if were up to me I'd go for the body kit becuase it will cost ya the same price as the stock bumper.
