Hey all,
Literally a few hours ago was involved in an accident and my cars front end was left pretty bad. So im kinda of at a loss w/o a vehicle and just reaching out to the west forums hoping some AZ peeps can offer support.

The car turns over fine, it developed a leak shortyly after but I moved it to the side of the road without issues and had it towed to my house and is sitting there now. The airbags deployed Obviously there is some damage to the bumper, the headlights, the vfad and the actuator are bombed, the hood and hood latch assembly is wrecked, i think the radiator is fine but there is some coolant leak now. Pictures explains most of it.

First, does anyone know of or have a nordic green they'd be willing to part if I were to decide to take this to a shop?

Can anyone recommend a body shop in the Chandler area? Or is there a Do-It-Yourselfer looking for work in the area?

I also am having thoughts that maybe I should just sell it as is. What could it possibly go for in this condition though?

Any thoughts or feedback would be appreciated.

Love the rex. Hopefully I can salvage it

Elite Automotive Finishes is the go to place for paint and body work here.

After looking at the pictures more it looks like it would need a trip to the frame rack too, not to mention the headlights are like 1000 bucks a piece by themselves if I remember right... If you're trying to pay for this out of pocket it would probably be cheaper to buy a new car and part this one out...

Ok, that's what i was afraid of. I think I might just end up putting it on the For Sale forum its just im not sure what a fair price is for the car in this condition. I just dont think I have the space/time to part it out myself since i rent and it's not my home and dont have the garage

Is an insurance claim out of the question,or maybe just to far gone

Unfortunately I only had liability not comprehensive/collision.

Well that's not good, hopefully someone will buy this and doesn't end up with a date with the crusher. Good luck

Yeah I'm a throw it up on the for sale section. Hoping someone in the valley can take it off my hands and part it since I can't. I know it'd be worth it. New pads and rotors. New clutch and a new omp from Mazda that last part alone... Well let's not talk about that .

How much are you asking?

Well the brake pads and rotors are new. The clutch is new. OMP is new. Shocks pretty new. Engines got 119k not a recall never been flooded all original. Trannies good. Not a track car just a daily to and from work. I was hoping like $3000? Is that too much to ask in this condition?

Needs radiator (cracked), hood, hood latch assembly, front bumper and assembly and headlights and airbags, vfad and vfad actuator.

If its too much lmk but I feel it has some good parts left.
