    Front end fender-bender happened today...front-end body parts needed!

    this is going to sound as crazy and ridiculous as it seems, but last night I was invited over to my Mom and sister's place for dinner. My parents are divorced/seperated, so I try to go over and visit a couple times a week to keep in touch with them.


    I ended up staying kinda late, and when I showed up that night I forgot to park my car in the garage and just left it in the driveway behind my mom's car parked outside, not thinking much of it. I ended up spending the night in my old room because I was tired.

    Well, to my horror I guess my sister stressed out my mom enough that she was late for work...and my mom just threw it into reverse at about 5-10 miles an hour and slammed right into my front-end.....

    At first I was furious, and my mom for about an hour after she got home tried to blame it on me for parkin g behind her, but long story short she has agreed to pay outof pocket for new parts. At this point, I realize some aftermarket options may be cheaper for the following parts I need, but here's a list of the stuff that needs repaired that I want and ca. buy right now if forum members have them:

    Budget is open as well.

    1.) OEM or aftermarket/carbon fiber hood. I know VIS makes a head for our cars so that may be an option. My hood has a huge dent in it and has been severely bowed in several places, so it's non repairable.

    2.) An aggressive but tasteful-looking duraflex or similar fronf bumper....preferrably similar or avaliable equivelant to the brabus front bumper like Christopher has that I could put some big foglights in.

    3.) New AMG/Avantgarde style simple front grille with bezel surround. Mine has been completely smashed in and the bezel surround is bent as well.

    Help me out guys, I need to get vixen back on the road. I have such in hand and am ready to hear offers.
