thats a tuff one dude. Honestly for the price to fix it, you could have one already in fine order. If this is salvage and the work to be done, I would want to pay like $8k range maybe to make it worth my wild. Youll prob spend over $20k by the time you get the car, get it done and then your stuck with a salvage title.

That's looks really really easy to fix man. I'd grab it and find the parts on here.

not worth that much. needs a hood, fender, head light, ACD pump, intercooler, intercooler pipe, new tire (possibly new rim), most likely a new core support, new front bumper, new crash beam, potential for suspension damage, potential for AC condensor needing to be replaced, and potential for radiator as well. add up the labor to fix that, any paint work, and factor in a salvage title. if the car were 8k it might be worth it. even if you do all the work yourself, buy all the parts used, it will still be around the same price you can buy a running car with a clean title for. heck, even in the damaged state it is as much as a clean evo 8 can go for.
