front end damage

Post by corsa sport 3 »

hi all.

just bought a corsa sport 1.4 16v. it is a alright motor apart from it has been in a front ends smash. the repair job is pathetic. but i got the car cheap. the front bumper is held on by self tappers. my mates have had a look and said the bumper struts are all bent. do i just replace these or should i wait till i get a mot on the car?

another problem is the tracking is out and i have been to 4 garages and they have all said they can't do the tracking because the car is too low. it has been lowered on springs and shocks by 60mm and has gsi wheels on it. any help would be welcome

if you need a new front panel, i have a brand new g-m one £50 plus postage
then copies bend and the bonnet wont open, which is a bit rubbish

i was thinking about taking it to a body shop to see what they say is going to need to be done. i am alright at mechanics of a car but hopeless with anything to do with the body of the car. i would put pics up to show the problem but don't know how
