03 Lancer OZ crash - Repair progress thread - Question about a part
Hey, Haven't posted in a while but I have my 03 lancer oz rally with the lightening yellow paint, with plasti dip over the hood, roof & trunk.
I crashed it and broke my FR Control arm, Axle, tie rod, and damaged engine cradle. Other than the obvious body damage I had done to the headlight, fender & front bumper cover.
I had my mechanic friend do the mechanical work and I have been working on finishing up the visual.
I decided to put DEPO black projector headlights with 8000k hid kit from eBay. The install was simple. Sorry I don't have more pictures I will get more (high res) pictures soon.

Here is the picture of the accident, and one of the new headlights installed.

New headlights installed.

So I took off my front bumper and about 3/6 of the bolts broke off and I am drilling them out. I proceeded to take off the front bumper and the bumper brackets (one was broken) came off with the black piece attached to my radiator support (had my vin on it as well).
I was wondering what was that part in the middle attached to my radiator support ? I will get pictures up tomorrow if you do not understand.
Thanks! I am in progress with getting the fender and front bumper back on. I plan on plasti dipping the rest of the car.
P.S - I could use all the help possible with figuring out the best set of extraction tools for these bolts. I just purchased titanium drill bits to get the screws out... so let's hope its not that rough.
