some tracks will let you run with the front bumper if nothing else falls off but that's highly doubtfull cus some techs are dicks like that and you should just go to the yards to get parts.

yea basically i've been thinking, chop off the core support (weight reduction anyone?) and the front chunk of the ---- the fender bolts onto, and just kinda wing-it on the front end. weld a bar here, throw on a couple tacks there.. good to go. couple junk fenders and a new $30 certifit bumper and im good to go

and actually after just looking at the pics there looks like the passenger fender is salvagable anyway, just gotta bang out the tip

just take it all off. tell them it's the new import retro hot rod open wheeled look. Then tell him don't be seen without it done cause if peeing your pants is cool, consider me Miles Davis.
