Thank you all for your concerns and your input on ideas.. I will check them all out for sure. I have heard that some aftermarket hoods don't fit correctly, so I'm looking for people that have bought aftermarket hoods and their responses to that.
Thanks again
Don

OK, I know how everyone likes pics so I took some. There is no more headlight assembly at all..just an empty hole where it use to be. Looks too that there is some front bumper damage when I look inside the hole.The car is drivable as I did drive it back home. Won't really know the extent of all damages until it's looked at, but it looks bad.
Sorry about the accident, hope it works out.
Im sure that it looks worse than it is.

By the way, can you please tell me what rims those are you have on there?
My friend has been looking for exactly those kind of rims for his
03 Z06, Black with silver lip and not be able to find them.
Also I wonder where you got them and how much they were.

Thanks!

Sorry about your accident

I think you would be very happy with MCM hood, Tiger Shark Nose and some C5R lights and throw on one of those new rear spoiler from RPI.

I live over in the Phila, PA and have new TS nose and C5R lights that I'm selling if you go that way.
