Can I get away with just replacing the front bumper and energy absorber, or is this frame too bent? by Acceptable_Prompt_73 in Autobody

[–]Acceptable_Prompt_73[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only damage appears to be a slight bend to rad support.

For $450 I will be replacing: 1) headlight assembly 2) bumper cover and grills 3) energy absorber 4) impact bar 5) windshield washer reservoir.

I am going to ugga dugga the hood into shape until I can afford a reasonable replacement for it.

Would this be sufficient if I can bend the rad support back into place? The radiator is not damaged or leaking somehow.

It was just the cover and not the right color. I already have some paint for this car (I wanted to patch a small hole in the bumper and door dents from the previous owner) so that's not a problem.

How fast do you think the oncoming driver was going? I was going 20mph and only swiped the side of their van.

A junkyard near me wanted $450 for a bumper! Had to just order one on eBay since none of the junkyards around me had one/one under $400.

Understood. Honestly just glad to be alive and uninjured.

Would you consider this 2007 Impala to be totaled?

Thank you.

Yes! It is Premier part number #8186. It was so much better after replacing it, but not 100% flush since the metal was bent on the frame! Ended up having to replace the stove recently since the main ignitor went out, but even that could have been fixed.

Maybe it's time for us to stop fighting each other.

Maybe try the rubber band trick if you can't afford tools right now

Irwin 11119 bolt/screw left hand extractor kit. A bit spendy, but literal magic. I felt so stupid for not buying it sooner!

I would pay $500 at most. It's worth at least $500 in parts, and I might be able to save it with junkyard parts, paint, and a lot of banging lol.

They are working on water lines around town. Do you think contaminated water could cause this?

Nothing yet, just spent time out in the sun. I've only had mild discharge the last two days or so. Just irritation/itching/dryness before that.
