Im on my way to work right, well I take a left to pull onto the road my plant is on. Well the road is wet from it raining the past few days so Im taking it slow being careful. Some jacka$$ from toyota cuts me off, I have to hit my brakes and I lose control of the car. It was either go into oncoming traffic or go into the ditch

Yea, it doesn't look that bad at all. The hood looks untouched, the Bumper Cover looks alright also. It looks like the front got pushed in a little bit. You will have to take off the Fenders, and the Front Bumper Cover, and look at the bracing under there. See if you can figure out what moved, and what can be bent back into shape. I don't have the pics of mine when I got hit in the back, put into a spin, and swiped a phone pole in the back. We ended up replacing the back right Quarter Panel, and now all it needs is a paint job. Once it gets painted, it will look like nothing even happened.

Anyways, it doesn't look all that bad. However my car didnt look bad at all when I did the same thign and it ended up reallllly costing me big time. Just hope you didnt bend the frame at all cause thats when it tends to get expensive I also had the replace the brace that is above the radiator so check to see if that is bent or anything and good luck...

You aint lyin,the airbags in them things take out everything up in the Dash, the Winshield, and they hurt more than they help. I unplugged both of mine cause of that. Some might say it's unsafe, but I have seen more times where they have injured than saved.

the more i look at it the more **** wrong I see,the intake elbow has a hole from the front end pushing it in,the nose is bent 4 or 5 inches to the left,both fenders are cut

Thats the real bitch of it. I thought it was simple until the guys at the body shop put my car on the lift then they found all sorts of things, my heart like sunk. Atleast the elbow is inexpensive, the fenders and bumper cover probaly run atleast $200-250 a piece or so. Good luck with everything and pray that your frame doesn't need bending, that alone ran me like $2000 and it wasnt on the estimate because they didn't know it needed fixing until they were under the car and fixing everythign else.

After looking at your new pictures, does the radiator look like it was shoved up or in a little bit? because I'm wondering why your elbow is pinched like that.
