    You'll probably need to do some straightening on the fender support to get it to line up. Come-along & some hammer-work. Did the impact move the pass side LCA cams?

    That support looks pretty rough. That sucker needs to be replaced to do it properly.

    That's gonna need about $5,000+ worth of work if going full on back to pre-accident condition.

    Insurance company would total it. The cost to replace the fender support alone - popping spot welds, removing that piece, finding a donor to pillage, retrofitting - would cost more than their declared value, sadly. That’s not taking into consideration the radiator support or all the passenger side door damage.

    you’d really need a donor truck to make this happen IMHO. Hurts to read, I’m sure; but that’s what others on here have done. I can try to link up the thread from the guy in FL Bay Area who had to do this for his less-than-careful son.

    Just the door damage and bedside damage similar to yours totaled mine. I took the check and "bought it back" or kept the truck so to speak. No way I was letting them have my FGT. Your front end is fuckered and needs some gumption and mild expertise to get er going again. If we live in a universe that the CorollaVirus can survive, then yours can two. Donor truck is the way. Maybe one that took left side damage, threw a belt or rear end totaled. May be able to find a decent truck that doesn't run on craigslist for less than $2k and get all the parts you need. Then sell what's left of it to the next guy, or scrap what's left for some hundos and move on.

    Depending on where you're located, I know where a donor truck is.
    02 2UZ 2WD SR5. Runs. Bent frame from impact to the left front.
