since you'll end up having to pay your deductible, use oem parts. the only time you should get aftermarket part after an accident is when someone hits you. let them pay for it!!!

think of it like this: do you want to pay 4 your own kit or would you rather have someone else pay for it?

Actually, the oem bumper is about the same price as a rear valance from a kit. The cheaper way to go is "quality aftermarket replacement." These companies make replicas of oem parts for dirt cheap. My guess is that a "quality replacement will run anywhere from about $150-$200. You could get a cheap kit for that much, but it would be junk.

I would go the "quality replacement" route for now, and wait until you don't have to pay the deductible to get a kit.

or you could say that you found the car hit in the parking lot somwhere that will be a no fault and i don't think you'd have to pay the deductible

here is what you should do...

IF YOUR INSURANCE IS GOING TO COVER IT AND YOU KNOW SOME CUSTOM BODY SHOPS HAVE THEM BUT ON A BODY KIT AND TAIL LIGHT CONVERSION...THAT WOULD BE GOOD AND THE PARTS WOULD BE CHEAPER THAN OEM PARTS AND MONEY FROM YOUR POCKET....

Well u know my friends thought of that and we was goin to do that but never did. Well i dont have full coverage on my car. sop they wont help any i aint even tellin them about this. i got my tail lights ordered and they will be in tomrrow from NOPI. but i am goin to still get a body kit i am not putting another factory bumper back on that car. i can get a real good deal from a couple of guys i know. i can get a really nice urethane kit for really cheap and then i have a guy who can paint it and put it on for cheap also.

Thanks man for the site... they got some pretty good prices on stuff like that. i just wish that blitz kit was a little less expensive. Well heres an update on the car. i got everything pulled out and got my custom tail lights from NOPI.com put in. $100 to get everything pulled out and to put in the lights. but now the bad thing. my right tail light is getting moisture in it and the other one is clear as who knows wat.. wat should i do to prevent this tak them back to where i got them?
