I know not a lot about front ends of Saph's have a look at these photos and tell me what you think would need done to repair. I guess, wing, bumper, slam panel(is it removable?), lights and possibly bonnet??

I also have my eyes on this... Just for parts more than anything

Barry_GTi

Well tell me no if you plan on going above $2500? Causs it will cost me to get it down to Dunners.

slam panel is spot welded,the car is sitting a bit squint so maybe some suspension and chassis damage,the wheel looks like its been pushed back also.maybe a bit of fettling to the inner wing aswell.and a radiator as theres a puddle below it.a pair of bonnet hinges,it looks a bit like the roof has been pushed up,it would be better to get a full side on pic of the passenger side.

don't look like there is anything wrong with it other than the wing

the bonnet will straighten up easy enough too and everything ont he front end will repair real easy

there is enough adjustment ont he lights to make them look spot on and there doens't appear to be any damage to the front chassis meber at all

also, the door shut lines look spot on so it's very doubtfull that there is anything chassis wise that's bent

jacko

that will repair no problem where is it

It's only a scratch, inner winng will need beating back into shape, plus the other stuff mentioned, look to see if chassis has any ripples, though they are very strong at the front, the wheel being back is most likely the shit weak tca is bent and the arb too, the top strut area will straighten no probs with shove.

will probably end up missing the auction anyway as ill be out of town that day.

Would be nice just to strip. Keep running gear and sell the rest to make your money back.

Thats a joke right

The bonnet is twisted to fook, its also done the slam panel and part of the inner wing. I should also think the wing has gone back and damage the door.
Dont get me wrong though, its still repeairable though, all comes down to how much it sells for.

from what i can see, slam panel and wing is what's needed and a new light and bumper and possibly some suspension steering damage as to why the wheel is no the same direction as the other
the wing, in the picture, looks like it's still in line with the rest of the door and even at teh bottom of the a piller, so it's not like it's take a head on smack, more of a crease along the side

i've repaired plenty of bent bonnets in my time, that'll come out no sweat

I will see how the auction goes, might end up just breaking it if it's cheap enough.

Thanks guys.
