Here is my accord after the heartbreaking accident I had:(

I'm fixing it myself and to tell you the truth its gonna be a hard job since most of the damage is internal for eg..strut bars and supports.

The impact absolutely smashed my washer tank and punctured my air con bottle...Now I'm stuck in summer without air con:(

After $800 dollars I made the car driveable again..I placed the old headlight back on as it was just the cover that was damaged and I also hammered out the guard abit and put it back so just so my car is legal to drive until I buy a new guard.Parts for these type of Hondas are really hard to find in Australia..It shits me.. I resprayed the front bumper and put it back on as there isnt much damage on it and all I need now is a new washer tank, left horn, air con tank, corner light and blinker and a headlight motor since I accidentally took out the wrong screw and now it doesnt work:(...Cause more trouble for myself..

Ill keep youse posted when I fix it more...In the mean time its more work for me and more searching for these "rare" parts..

bye all

LOL he clearly states how parts are really hard to find in Australia..

I know I didn't read either, just looking at the pics :D

Good luck with the repair though..

If you can't find parts locally, ask in the "wanted" section. I know we have a few memebrs from Australia. There are also a few nice members from New-Zealand that might help you out. Shipping from NZ will be less than getting parts from America or Europe.
