I went to caliber collisions and they said that because of company policy they can't work on my car. Apparently putting on a front splitter changes the structure of the car, I had to drill 4 holes into the crash bar for the support rods to attach to.
I ended up taking it to a small mom & pops shop and they said if I buy all the parts (front bumper/crash bar) that they'll install, color match, and bend the frame back to its original position for 1000. I think that's a reasonable deal so I told them I'll return in about a month when the parts arrive.
I just need to save some money to buy the APR Performance front bumper with APR Lip & a Drift Armor Pro crash bar. I'll post pictures when it all gets done.
From what the guy said the truck hit my crash bar pretty hard because it pushed back enough to slightly bend the side frames outward. Which is why theirs a gap on either side of my hood. Easy fix he said since it's less than a centimeter on each side. Other shops were trying to charge double.
