Floating Hood Mod

I had a exact same kind of damage from front end accident.
didnt get a writeup, cost to fix was $11000 CDN
so I paid around $2000 more on my self + $11000 from Insurance to get bodykits, CF hood, Ze Fenders and stuff.
great way to upgrade your car if you wanted bodykit.
but it still sucks and hurts like ****.
Wish you a luck

I had slightly less damage, no frame damage, just front bumper, grill, headlights, hood, radiator, and all the associated mounting brackets. It cost me 3400 to get the whole thing fixed. I bought tyc headlights and a differnt grill though. Looks like you have much of the same damage plus the frame damage, no idea how much that costs to fix.

there is ZERO frame damage, the major things are bumper beam and radiator support, other than that, hood, fenders, grille, bumper and lights. Is it a 2001 or 2002? my guess it is not totalled, but if your insurance does, id buy it back in a heartbeat.

ya i doubt it would be totalled. the radiator support looks to be the only part of the so called "FRAME" damage. but if it was totalled, i would also buy it back, fix it, and then sell it. haha

Only use Honda parts if you are going to keep it stock. Otherwise it will never look the same.

Getting it fixed is going to be the least of your worries...your insurance is going to go through the roof!

I was almost in the exact situation as you except I was the only that got rear-ended at a red light!!!

I don't feel sorry for you at all. How the f.uck do you rear-end someone at a red light?
ANSWER: You were speeding! Try to slow down next time.

Hey now is your chance to put on a 04-05 front end on it ...

Just kick in the fenders to make sure they wont reuse tyhem and your set..

Now get a 04-05 front end..
who agrees with me ????

yea i dont ge that, i mean you musth ave slammed on the gas or something, cause that is some serious dents, otherwise thats like saying our cars are crap and cant take a small accident, but yea change the grill bumoper if you want headlights and whatever else, but yes if its in your insurance policy they are allowed to use used parts, its not as good obviously there used not new, but you should see how much new ones cost
