my car got hit today

well, this is how it happened......

so i'm at work looking up a part for a customer(i work at kragen), and somebody walks in and asks if somewhere owns an integra. i looked and asked why and he says that i hit it. i go outside to assess the damage and it doesn't look good. basicly the guy had parked right in front of me so our front bumpers were facing each other. when he got back to his car to leave he let go of the clutch thinking his car wasn't in gear and he plowed right into my front end. the bumper and bumper support are messed up and my driver side fender got pushed back and bent. it sounds like an easy fix but heres my problem.....

i've got a jdm front as you can see in my sig and i don't know where i can get just the parts i need. i know a couple of places, but they sell only the front clip as a whole. if anybody in the bay area knows where i can get just the parts i need please let me know. and to make it even worse that it is, i don't have a color code from when i had my car repainted the first time. there isn't one either. i just told the body shop what kind of color i was looking for and they mixed it themselves.


please help me

Any self respecting panel shop can mix the colour to match.

One place I went to said even if they have the colour code, they only use it as a starting point. A lot of the time, the code produces a different colour/shade to the car (weathering, different paints, etc.).

Is the person who hit your car paying 100% of the bill? If so, screw them & order the parts from www.aj-racing.com . I know that they sell the parts individually. Here is the specific link that breaks down the parts: http://www.aj-racing.com/JDM-DC2.html

Or maybe go through your insurance. Because it is all his fault, you can claim & he will pay your excess & the insurance company will have to source the parts. But your insurance will probably go up.
