its easily fixable...Not cheap, but easy. I've seen much worse be fixed in a week so a dealer or shop shouldn't have a problem. All it needs is new parts and ~3 days work.


Hope this cheers you up. Next time...be carfeful! This is an Evo, not a civic...it's not a "throw-away" car!

Your Evo is not bad damage... You can Fix it up.. plus it not total... so It would not be cheap to fix it up.. Wires and Motor are look good and it need repaint the Hood and Repairs some..

The mystery is finally revealed!!

Man, that sucks…to get all that damage and to go through all that aggravation just because a rag was forgotten. I would assume it was placed directly on the exhaust manifold, not just on the hood vents? You try and do something to protect the Evo and you get burned, LITERALLY! I guess you won’t try that one again!

I hope everything works out for you.
