The Best price I could ever find.
A decent paint job would cost about 2-3k and installation should be simple, just replacing panels and figuring out how to put in the new radiator supports and lights, nevertheless it's easy to figure out. But a garage would more or less feel the same, but charge you 300-500 bucks just for that. So, yeah if everything done right, the cost would exceed the value of the car.

Sorry, but this is the part where we make fun of you age. I mean when your in an accident you always call the cops unless the other party pulls out hefty check and tells you not to. I figure you have witnesses; you can luck out there. A police report would be better. The other party’s insurance companies suppose to run out and survey damages. Or tow the car to a local garage where the other party’s insurance company pays for storage and waits for an estimate.

I suggest you wait a while, save some money and then just buy an entire front Clip for like 5k or so, and then you'll have everything plus a JDM engine. Toss in another 5k for worse case senario problems and swap/body work. I know your spending more, but financial planning is the key.

Unless you have ooodles of money ignore everything I said and go for it. If not work on the insurance thing and see how much you can collect.

Hope everything works out,
Live and Learn,
Mike
