Looking the images of your lights, they seem to be intact, once you start pulling apart the front end, post up some images of the lights please. Pulling apart the frontend will take about 2-4hrs.

Should only take 30 min - 1 hour to pull the whole front end off. Theres only like 15 bolts holding it all together

Well i have pulled off the bumper nd lights and a few other things, the mounting plates for the lights are broken but i piked up some good ones for 350, im also getting a new xr bar with sprint lip so all i need now is guards and maybe rad support, slowly getting there, the straightening wont be cheap....

If your keen I have a EA I can remove the Rad support from it for you, and front guards, altho it dont have the holes in the guards for the indicators. you can have them and just pay the freight?

My AU was worse than that when I hit a roo at 120k's... everything in front of the engine was touching it or past it... It cost me a bonnet, 2 guards, a bumper, 2 headlights, grille, front cut from a S2 Au at about the battery tray level and a loan of a welder. As long as the rails are straight and you can get at the spot welds then this looks to be a one or two weekend job if you get stuck in and avoid the brewski's. Make sure you take your time, measure twice, cut once... And when you go to attach the new rad support, tack it in using some tech screws first. Then measure it all up again. Not that difficult really.

I got quoted $3-5K for mine to be done at a panel beater, the panel beater said they charge insurance companies 15-25 hours for labour, parts & labour made my EB a 'financial' write-off & it was insured for $6500.

Sorry to hear about your car mate....


i dont share the same pity......... he drove like a C**k, come undone, and now he has to pay

hopefully lesson learnt!!

and before the tyrade starts, if he cared about his missus & his car as much as he claims, then he would drive accordingly.....

but i know that being "crossed up" is a common natural occurence to alot of people here..... im betting the road was "greasy" or something lol


i crashed my EB XR6 a couple years ago, i wasnt driving like a "C**k".. hes not asking for your opinion on his driving "which you dont have a clue about" dont be a wanker and jump to immediate conclusion, or else you end up sounding like a C**k.
