Oh hey... It's a repair effort. Bought it at insurance auction. I'm a dealer so after I took my winnings I went and bought it back as a dealer. Let's just say its bad but not that bad. The frame is only damaged around the headlight. Course support bar isnt even damaged and the strut bar never moved an inch so motor is fine. The fender was grinding on guard rail after the wheel snapped.

It's about 2-3 grand in frame work but carbon fiber fenders and carbon hood and amuze kit will make it new. Add another 1000-1500 for used right side for the suspension work. Plus I was going to get new wheels regardless


Insurances valued my car with all the carbon fiber work we did at 39000. Payoff was 20 grand. . Bought car at insurance auction for 7-8 grand . So I'm fine with the build.
