Where does this Radiator hose go?

I crashed my evo on the drivers side and a radiator hose came out.

As mentioned above, that is your overflow tube. It's supposed to be connected to the overflow coolant bottle at one end. It is not connected at the other.

Looks like you were going fairly slow when you hit the divider. That 2.5mph bumper looks like it did it's job!

Are those bald Advans I see?

just look at the bright side.. its not really that bad, doesnt look like it touched the finder, so all you really may need to do is replace the headlight and the bumper cover, no real body work.. your lucky..

Wow you got ripped off no offence. I called the local DEALERSHIP and they gave me a price of 400$ for the whole drivers side unit.

That's probably because they think it's for a regular Lancer.

Sorry to see your mishap, hope you get everything fixed and back on the road.
