definitely sucks, but the fortunate thing is that you're ok and that you were able to maintain control of your car despite the hood blinding your vision on the freeway! The car can always be replaced and repaired, and Im sure it will look twice as nice one your done with the new look.

I wouldn't do that conversion. Its like people who have Tahoes and than do Caddy front ends. Maybe its just me but I think get the real 3rd gen if you want it, not making a 2nd gen look like a 3rd gen. I think with all the great jdm bodykits out there now I would jusy get something rare and hot from japan. again this is just my opinion. I'm just glad your ok and its not totaled.

I'm late on this but sorry to hear about your accident Andy. You've had some bad luck episodes but you're always fortunate/blessed to not get injured and that's what matters most. Car parts can always be replaced and it just gives you more justification to continue modding the way you like to. Now...just to guess what's next. (ha ha)

dayam, that sucks, but glad the car isn't totaled... i'd say go for the 3rd gen conversion, it's like having the best of both worlds. get a new, fresher look without spending the cash

I thought I would update this thread and show you guys how dent removers are true artist....

Instead of having my roof cut out and replaced i thought what the heck lets see what these people can do. btw this route saved me atleast $2000. take a look
