Im new on this site but it looks like a good place to get help. I have a 99 cavalier z24 all stock and I slid into some lady but it isnt too bad. She was driving a saturn vue so my bumper missed hers and went under her vehicle instead, so the bumper is all good but I need to replace my rad, air conditioning condenser, hood latch, hood, and headlight mounts. A few questions I had were
1.Where a good reliable website or place I could get a new hood at for a descent price, Id prefer aftermarket but stock would be alright depending on price.
2. how should I go about bending the rad support back in place since it is a little pushed back
3. Should I take the air conditioning condenser to a shop to be replaced? or is it nothing special to discharge the system myself?
you can get everything yourself (hood,rad support ,ect ect) from a you pull it ,cheap..
the radiator you can get cheap there aswell as the ac condensor.. but some dont trust things like that from a yard so check local parts stores for priceing or even ebay.. you can do all this work yourself easily enough with a few tools and save yourself hundreds possibly over what a shop would charge.
places like pepboys,autozone,advance auto parts all compete against others for best price so call around,im not sure if they do it on the sites but buying it from the sites you can have them ship directly to you,some even offer free shipping..
swapping the raddiator and ac condensor should only take a few hours..best of luck to ya and sucks to hear about your car..
See my Pm man, I have a used AC condenser for cheap if you want it...
