Default FIX IT! Repair pics & suggestions inside:

THe biggest problem with your car is the pearl paint. It's a 3 stage paint and it will probably never quite match right again. The paint is also expensive as hell.

My guesstimates: Certifit hood, fender... $700?
Is your headlight salvagable? 1x headlight lense $75.

Radiator supports... dunno. $200?

Clear corner turn signals, $35 from Ebay.

I think your bumper can be salvaged, and your underheadlight trim can be hammered back into shape.

Hope this helps, and I hope you fix it.

Deer strike!

Yeah if you could find pearl hood &amp; fenders used, that'd save $$ on paint.

Default I thought the bumper was different too...

flares out a little to match the S6 fenders.
