my wrecked p5

[RedProtege5-er]

well i went back to the body shop today. got a new quote for everything
heres the run down

2 new headlights (tabs broke off on the side that attaches to the bumper)
repair the hood latch
replace the upper tie bar
replace both radiator upper brackets
repair hood
replace bumper cover grommet
replace bumper cover
R&I both washer nozzles

Grand Total
10.5 hours of labor, 7.2 hours of paint
$1,694.71 (ouch)
but the good news is, my dad is gonna have insurance cover this, so its not outta my pocket...cuz it wouldnt be getting fixed if i had to pay for it.
im leaving the upper and lower grills off because thats $183 that i dont need to spend for something id just remove anyways

Hmm Good thing insurance will be able to cover minus your deductible. Funny by the looks of your pics, and by the quote you got a good deal. I had alot less visible damage and it was over a much smaller area, and it was still $1400-ish Im thinking California is really expensive, and they do really honest work at a fair price in NC. Good luck man. take care

If both of his headlights were broken, hells yeah. The price difference is still over 100 dollars per headlight (@ onlinemazdaparts.com prices).

yea, my dad knows a lot of the people there and they gave me a discount so, i cant really complain.

 

[redpr5]

quick question.
what is the part number for the msp front bumper cover?
onlinemazdaparts doesnt have it listed.

i found a body shop that would be willing to put that bumper on for me, i just have to bring them the part number.
