Question Lancer Front Repair

hey everyone

Saw this on ebay
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...&category=6355
and thought it might make a nice project/daily driver car.

Anywho i was wondering what parts i will need to rebuild the front of the car. ie. hood, radiator, lights...etc
So far i was thinking a evo front grill from RRM and a Kaminari 4 Piece Body Kit which includes the front bumper.

I tired searching on the net and all i could come up with was oem radiator and ac condeser fan assemblies and a front reinforcement thing that goes behind the bumper.
I don't know what parts to get and where to get them. Also prices are helpful just to give me a good idea of how much it might cost.


Sorry this was kinda long or whatever. . .thanks in advance

Unfortunately on a Lancer Front end damage usually runs 5-6 grand to repair, maybe 3.5-4 if you can get junkyard parts. I think it's just meant to crumble in the front.

for the $1500 the auction is at now I think it'd make a great project car. sure you are going to spend alot on it, but even spending $5k to get it back to 'normal' you are still ~$10k ahead of everyone else who purchased them new. $10k would make for a nice bodykit/paint job, turbo, and a good system
