This has nothing to do with the front end...
I got rear-ended (by my wife in her NB--when she was rearended by a
16-year-old in granma's Buick). Bent the bumper and mounts, replaced them
easily with the $1000 in settlement.
But...the alternator went bad within a week, the overflow tank developed a
leak three days later, and the next month AVP was mailing us a motor--not
covered by insurance.
