Well that sucks but looks like something you can fix without too much work. Are you going to paint the entire car? Looks like it in a body shop.....or a heck of a nice garage!

Bummer.
At least you were going slow enough for the airbag not to deploy.

I know mine took a small hit on the same side at one time, the inboard headlight assembly mounting bracket on the core support was bent and straightened and the hood and right fender were replaced. Been over every square inch of the front end cleaning the grease encrusted beast so I can paint the frame, suspension and engine and no other damage that I can find.

Ouch! Did it damage the rad or anything else back there? Looks like you're already in the right place to get it fixed, lol.

Yeah it sucks but I guess it happens to all of us eventually. I am going to paint the entire car, I actually started the process 4 years ago so this will force the issue a bit and it will finally get done. It is in the body shop I work at.

Very true, I'm thankful for that and the fact that he wasn't in a customer's car.

Haha I started preping the car for paint years ago because the clear coat was delaminating and I never got past priming it.

Luckily it didn't get the radiator, but it did get into the core support a bit, definatly straightenable though.
