This is the new front end I got last Saturday, I also got a new steering column and a new console with a little black plastic part under the ashtray. I paid 227 for all of it, but we had to take it off. All the maroon parts came off of an 88 Accord LX 2 door. Anyways, here are the finished pics, it still needs to be painted but for now it's alot better than what it was.

The head light is like that because since the car was wrecked, and i'm not a body shop, thats the best i could do.

no they lazy eye is not on purpose. it's was wrecked really bad on that side and i haven't fooled with the headlight that much i was in a hurry because it's been so cold.

the 'shift knob' i took it off when i put the new console in (that has the tape holders) and i think i lost a piece, plus i was high so i didn't even look for it or anything. :cool2:

Good job homie!That $227 went alot further than it would of in any body shop that would've done the same thing.How did you line up the body lines or have you yet?It might not sound like a big deal but can be pretty noticable,kinda makes a car look bent.Good job though!Dig that lazy eye!lol
