hey, new to the forums thought maybe you could help me out. I hit a curb at under 10mph and it messed up my bumper and passenger side lights. What would be the cheapest route to take to make it look decent again.

The options i thought of so far:
*Salvage/Junk Yard and look for a bumper assembly the same color
*Buy a complete body kit, if I can get it in black or I would have to paint it $$$
*Buy the stock parts needed in black or if not available buy them and get them painted$$$

I realize the body kit wouldn't cover all of it such as the splash gaurd or something like that in the wheel will need to be replaced.
Let me know,
Thanks,
Rob

 

what year/ trim

 

1996

 

ouch. But don't even consider body kit stuff- anyone that's had one will tell you it's not worth it. They crack easily, they rattle, etc, etc, etc.....more depending upon how poorly or well it was intsalled. Even great installs however, still have more downsides than good.

yea it looks pretty bad. i can help u out with the corner light and the bumper light. i recently bought blk hsing jdm headlights and jdm bumper lights so i still have the stock ones. email me accordsir86@comcast.net if ur interested. both the corners and bumpers are urs for $20. o yea and they're stock ones not clear or anything.

 

Junkyard, you have a common enough color to find the parts.

 

how big was the curb lol 2 feel tall ?

 

damn. get some black rope or something. white stands out too much, lol.

anyways. i say go with a salvage. there are some places around memphis tn. that buy good condition cars and part them out for cheap. where about do you live.

you can get a good painter to just do the bumper if the color doesnt match up for cheap

 

Thanks a lot for the input

Thats what everyones saying but know that I think about it there was a light post behind the bush's but i dont think i hit it, but i must have cause the curbs are your avg size(5" or so)

 

ouc, you might need the bumper mounts also for the passenger side or like te plastic things that hold the side of bumper.

id take it off and inspect it.
