Who exactly would be claiming that a Lancer ES/LS/OZ is better than an Evo?

The Evolution is clearly the best car, but the poll really has nothing to do with the thread's content.

How exactly did you manage to get your car into the ditch? Something tells me you were doing something you shouldn't have been.

*sniff**sniff* it smells like noob in here.

Get a second estimate somewhere else, broken down in parts and labor, and post that. I don't really understand how much damage your looking to fix (like is the hood 600 or the hood and bumper and whatever else?).

well i ***ed up my hood before and it was about 350 for a stock hood not painted...i think u should jus go to a dealership and ask them how much for a stock hood...but if u need the grille too then that about another 150

Time to go aftermarket if insurance allows it. Hell, time to go aftermarket anyway with the cost of replacement OEM stuff. I haven't checked, but Erebuni might have OEM stuff cheaper than the dealership; dunno about the hood, but I do know they have the oz body kit.
