Rebuilding FRS!
 

Hey guys, I'm new to this forum.

From Canada- Toronto gta area. Ive always been a FRS fan (Ever since Initial D), finally got a chance to steal a deal from the salvage yard. Doing a front end rebuild.

From what I can tell when I purchased it, there is no signs of major damage. I would love some input and opinions on what problems that might occur / things to look out for.

Ps. I am looking for parts (driver airbag, right fender, right headlight (Xenon) and some rims/ tires. I will post a WTB post in a bit.

so yah.

Here's a pic of the damage, let me know what you guys think.

That's not bad at all. I've repaired much worse damage on my own car with ~$3k in parts/paint and a few days of my time. Good luck with the build, PM me if you've got any questions!

go to this website http://www.villagescionparts.com/ and look for parts u would be surprised how cheap the arts are from the dealership

This. Village Scion is always one of the cheapest if not the cheapest for oem replacement parts. Also try http://toyotaparts.bochtoyotasouth.com

It's kind of weird that an insurance company would total that out.

thanks guys, I appreciate it:thanks:

I'm not too surprised. It doesn't need to exceed the value to be totaled, just be somewhere near 65-70% of the value.

Considering the airbag went and all that if this car has higher than normal km's it's a pretty common total.
