If you search around you can get everything you need cheap.

I traded off my hood scoop for my front bumper. The hood I have I bought for $67, the fenders I found that were the right color cost me $100, etc. Mine is having to have all sheet metal from the shock towers forward replaced, including the frame. That itself only cost me $75.

Perfect time to upgrade.

Ouff that's a bargain, I hope I can find deals like that. I might have my car towed to a shop to have them sort through the damage, but AAA only allows 3 tows a year. So I need to have someone come look at it at my house to find frame damage. It's a start anyway haha. Did you fix yours by yourself? I'd be able to do the bumper ect. with a friend, but the internals will stump the hell out of me. lol

I'm having a guy replace the parts and paint what needs to be painted. I did the full disassembly and I will reassemble it too.

Here is an album to everything I have done so far. I take plenty of pictures so that I know where things go when I put it back together.

That's what I think I might do, would be my best bet. That's exactly what I was thinking about the upgrade. If I'm going to throw in all these upgrades now's the time to do it while the cars all apart. lol

You most likely won't know you have frame damage unless you put it on a machine, why is her insurance not covering this?

No, she just kept on driving, which is probably a good thing; Ya'll woulda seen me on the news for beating up a old lady. lol
@1Slow67 I just realized you posted the pics, and sheesh that's alot of work, you must really know your way around a mustang, I'd get lost haha.

Totaled. My insurance company totaled mine because it had too many aftermarket parts and airbags didn't deploy at all. It's up to the insurance company, plus if you are full covered. They rather totaled it so you can purchase a new car and they get more money. :P You have to know how to play the cards. lol

Nope, well at least not these newer mustangs. This is my first time doing anything like this on a newer mustang. I had a 67 before these 2 new edge mustangs, and I tore that car apart so many times. These cars are a major pain with all of the electronics and safety stuff.

Oh yeah, I hear you on that. Cars back then were much more straight forward.
But since most people are saying it looks totaled, how much you think I can get for it as is? Hopefully enough, so if I were to sell this and my Buick i'd be able to get another one.
