So here are the pics of the car after getting it back from the collision shop. They used the same front bumper, and fixed the drivers side fender that was previously damaged. The new paint hasn't been buffed yet. The collision shop said the paint itself ran them $250. My dad and I spent $700 on parts, and paid the shop $1200 for their work.. For a total of a $1900 job.

The reason the hood looks a little off is because the hinges were bent from the collision. I'm not too worried about it.. Besides that, I dont think I can complain, especially with the cash I have left over from the $6700!

Turned out good! You can't even tell that it has been hit. Now go buy some goodies with the leftover money.

Why didn't you just get the hood hinges while the car was in the shop? You should have filled those bumper holes as well , but overall the car looks good and you have a nice piece of change in your pocket.
