well i was driving on the freeway in a bit of moderate traffic and some girl decided she needed to get in the left lane and cut between me and the car in front of me which was a bit of a squeez for her and then she slammed on the breaks. Heres the results






luckily the airbag didnt go off!
The radiator didnt pincture luckily
it doesnt seem that bad yet sooo, im gunna try to fix it. we will see
im going to try and get it fixed by the twentieth because then I have to give my dad his car back
so anyone in the michigan area have a few spare parts hangin around that i might need let me know, especialley a hood, doesnt really matter what color as long as theres no rust or major dents.

Don't look to bad, a trip to the salvage yard should be all you need. Check for some part out cars. A hood will be your biggest problem. A grill, headlights, and you should be good.
oh man, really sorry to hear about the crash. It doesn't look that horrible but just know when to throw the towel in. good luck, i see alot of parts for our years of bonnevilles on craigslist. good luck getting the old girl back in shape!
aww that sux damn female drivers not too bad in the damage department one trip to the bone yard and you'll be good i saw a bunch of those in there for CFC'* good luck on fixing her hop there is nothing more wrong with it
I feel your pain, I had the same thing happen about a month ago. I was not so lucky though. Mine was a total. You should be able to get her back on the road from the looks of it. Good luck with the repairs.

OW. too bad it messed up the radiator support. you might be able to save it with some carefully placed hammer blows, make sure the airbag fuse is out during surgery though.
personally I'd venture to say you need a new core support as well, a fairly inexpensive part, I think I paid only about $100ish for mine brand new. but the welding it in may be the tricky part.
best of luck getting it back on the road!
