here'* a few pictures,

headlight ***'y is sitting in the back seat.

notice how the radiator supports are pushed back (the air filter hold down is bent)
secondary hood latch is mangled as you can see, i had to remove it to get access to the engine.

That doesn't look too bad. What were the crash details?

Here are some pics of my rear ending last summer. I got hit at a damn good speed, but it held together well. (This was before I pulled off the hitch.)






A lot of the damage was internal. The body had to be streched out a bit. If you look closely near the trunk lid you can see why. But this is a damn strong car.
