It's paid off that you and your family are handy with the spanners. If I was in your position the car would have been written off and I would be back getting the bus.

Obviously the worst bits can't be seen from that shot. Did it go 'off road' judging by the lower level of damage?

Yes, it went onto a grass verge and hit a solid wood fence and the fence creased underneith it. The car then sat on the wood etc for however many hours gradually breaking everything!

Shame you've ordered the parts...

I have a Trophy Blue Bumper with splitter going free as of this weekend.... If you wanted it you could have had it for the cost of collecting it...

also got two headlights just sitting here as well... again could have thrown them in with the bumper....

Good luck with the repair! - Hows the crash bar?

Thanks dude, doesn't matter now anyway, bits on the way an all

The crash bar is being included with the bumper I think, apparently it's cattle trucked where it took the full force of the fence.

Where did you source the radiators from?

Are they new or second hand?

ALL the parts are coming from George at RSM. Conveniently he was going past my Dad's place where it's currently stored so I asked him to have a look, gave me a full list and a price so I went for it

I believe most if not all of the parts have been taken from other 180's that have been arse-ended
