So basically i hit a car today at a red light going about 5 mph and bent my front bumper and hood. Got an estimate for 2800 and was wondering if anyone had some parts lieing around and/or knew of a good reliable auto body shop in Long Beach, California area. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks....I need: I need all 5th gen parts if possible please. I need repl bumper cover, repl energy absorber, repl reinf beam, repl grille, repl hood, and repl emblem standard. Those are the major ticketed items. If anyone could get me great deals on them, i'd be greatly appreciated. Thank You

 

wow $2800 that's insane. Just go to any cheap auto shop and have them order the parts. the hood is like $70, bumper $50-100, and every other part should be cheap as well. If the body need adjustment they do it for like $100-200. I got into a similar accident but it was a van that backup to my car and basically did the same damage it did to your car, and I got an estimate for $5,000. I got the check and fix it for $500 lol

 

dang 500! did you do the labor yourself?
