frs car accident fixes
 
Hi everyone! I'm new here. Have a 13' frs that got in an accident. Will have to replace right fender, front bumper, hood, alignment is off, scratches on the side all the way to the rear bumper.

When I take it to the shop, i'm going to have them install some type of led headlights, fog lights, and I was thinking Toms tail lights. Where have some of you purchased those parts? I was also thinking a rocket bunny Kit, but I don't like seeing the nails screwed into the body. Any one know how to get around that?

Also, I have to pay out of pocket :( does anyone know any body shops in the bay area that are good and can give me a good deal?

Thanks for your input!

if you're looking for just front fenders, todoroki is having a group buy on their fenders. It's cleaner with no rivets and a direct replacement. as for the rear, I've seen a car that molded on the rocketbunny v1 fenders which looked good as well

Thank you :) I looked at that deal, did I read it correctly that if you get those fender pieces you have to get a spacer or wider wheels??? how do I contact the person selling them? Just respond to that first post??

yup, I believe it was 30mm extra clearance :thumbsup:
I don't know how the groupbuy works exactly. I'm guessing you send them the money and they'll start shipping it. If it hits more than 5 buyers by the time the groupbuy is over, they send you a rebate.

Thanks! I think I will buy through there. What do you think of those new headlights that are on pre-sale right now? I need to replace my headlights too.

Are you talking about those "BRZ style" winjet head lights? They do look cool, but not a fan (then again, I have a BRZ, so I might be biased ;))

Well, let's pretend you had a frs, got the whole right side scrapped up and will have to get new headlights and fog lights, would you think these would be ok together

I'm afraid if I get those headlights and have regular fog lights they would be too dim since the head lights are led.
