Ok, i bought a 97 del sol s (automatic, yeah i know...) for 2.5g's with 180k on it with all intentions of dropping a b18c and 5 speed in it. 4 days after i bought it (in october) there was an ice storm, and i slid off the road in a slow speed "accident". I fucked up my passenger door, side marker and bumper, and miss aligned the front end a tiny bit. I got quote at 500 bucks to fix everything (mind you this is with me buying my own parts, which i did).

El Dio Sol: Bone stock.... for now, mods to come - Tobyhanna, Pennsylvania

page one is the day i bought it, 2 is after the accident, and 3 are the parts i bought for it.

Now, I am having a really hard time finding parts, and to save me from trolling through all the posts about stuff for sale on here, can anyone help me find a new hood latch and new hinges for my hood? Maybe not costing an arm and a legg too, that would help seeing as im a broke ass person.

sadly my local junkyards suck, and finding a del sol in any condition near me is very rare.

Whats that sticker on your trunk mean?

 

[TheGeneral]

its a magnet, and it means beginner driver/new driver/JDM beginner. But you knew that already didn't you? you were hoping i would say "idk? but i saw it on another car so i bought one". please. seriously i just need help finding these parts, i feel bad for fucking up my car and desperately want it fixed.

Try a dealership for all the parts you need. If they dont have it in stock, they will get them shipped to their dealership within a matter of days.

really? well thank you.

soshinoya wakaba is the correct name of it and in japan is used to identify new drivers.

soshinoya koleshiya is used to identify old ass people (i.e. over 75).

thats the yellow and orange one.

Good deal. If they let you keep the old bumper, let me know how its damaged, as long as it has good mounting points I might be interested in buying it, as I havent had any luck finding a decent bumper for less than 50 bucks (max Im willing to spend, cheapass-bloodlines :lol)

i didnt read any of this thread. but i migh have a 93 del sol s for part out. pm me with what you need

its got a big dent and crack in the passanger side, nothing else it wrong with it. if they let me keep it ill let you know. ill get rid of it for like 30 bucks tops. I also have an OEM passanger side marker that i bought for 60, decided i wanted to go with the amber corners and bought them instead. so if anyones interested in that lemme know, i paid 60+shipping, im willing to get rid of it for 25+shipping.

[TheGeneral]

im no sure if it can be pushed out, and im not sure youll want it, but like i said, if they let me keep it, 25 bucks
