Well crap :(
-
It looks like it may be repairable but that core support is definitely bent. This will not be a simple swap of parts and there is no cheap way around fixing this.
-
Try calling Certifit for the core support. They aren't the best quality but you get what you pay for. Also hit up stew crew. He has a e36 parts car
-
I think I heard that stewcrew has a parts car but I can't remember.
-
thanks for the replies guys. I'll be thinking about what to do with it over the next couple of days. It'd be a shame to junk it, since it still runs like I didn't rear end somebody!!! Any recommendation on how to get the hood open? The latch is stuck. Should I just take a crowbar to it since the hood is done anyways?
Does anybody know if stewcrew has a parts car?
-
You might not want the fenders. We rolled them. With a hammer. And a forklift. So. Yep. Maybe some parts are salvageable. But most certainly not the areas we hit with a hammer. Or. A huge forklift.

I have a less beat up hood for this if needed for free lol. I say pull it out ghetto rig a driving light and keep on driving. Or drift it til death.

now that I think about it, the only thing you will probably want from stewcrews car is the front core support. the fenders have been rolled with a fork lift and the hood fell on the ground when earl was taking parts off of it.

It was sort of tossed but who is keeping score=P It is still a really straight hood. Might have some rock chips. At least you didn't need a windshield...

I'm wondering if my car wasn't lowered (thanks a lot Earl!
) if the damage would have come into the bumper instead of the headlight... although maybe it's better this way? You guys are all awesome. Unfortunately I don't have time to get in and take a look at it until Sunday 
. Any of you guys in the Milwaukee area interested in helping with an assessment in trade for some beer & pizza ?
