Car got crunched...looking for parts...(pics)

The pics say it all.

It looks like I'll be needing a right front fender, right front turn signal lamp, the gray structural piece that holds the headlights, and bumper cover...unless anyone thinks that the bumper cover can be saved. I'm not looking for perfection, so maybe a good fix is all it needs. I'm willing to pay anything lower than what my body shop would charge for parts...shipping included of course. Black is preferable, but I'd probably go with any color.

For all interested, it was a hit-and-run. I'm guessing an attempt at insurance fraud as the other person slammed on her brakes for no reason, but my manuevering was good enough to prevent all but a small dent in her bumper cover.

Lastly, can anyone give me a ballpark figure on what I should expect as far as repair costs? I'm going out for estimates on Tuesday and would like to know what to look for. Parts and labor separately. Thanks.

My estimate would be $3500 if you took it to the "pros". But it doesn't look too bad, you can get a fender, that structure and the light for less than $600 in parts. And black shouldn’t be all that expensive to paint.

On a side note, sorry to hear about your accident, there are always tons of morons on the road, and we have to maneuver around them all constantly :(.

Ohhh, so sorry to hear/see that. Hope it gets fixed as good as new (or better).

I have a 95 Mark VIII parts car with the parts you described as needing. I am in the Washington D.C. area, where are you?

I'm in CA. I'd guess shipping would be expensive?

Anyhow, my adjuster said $2,200 in damages, so I'll just have the shop do it with all new parts.
