    How hard do you think this DIY would be

    Okay these are the things I need to replace:

    Front bumper cover and absorber
    Both front headlight and corner light assemblies
    Upper radiator tie bar and side panel attachments
    Hood and Latch
    Left fender

    I ran (hydoplaned) into a Blazer couple weeks ago and his extra tire f'ed up my hood which rolled back the tiebar, broke the bolt-on tabs for the headlights and corner lights, broke the top ties to the radiator, pushed in the grill, and put 2 quarter size holes in my bumper.

    I'll try to get pics up tomorrow

    it shouldn't be too hard if nothing fram wise is bent. just make sure that you collect all the pieces, install them first and then have them painted. so i would leave yourself a couple days worth of time.

    The upper radiator tie bar will need to be cut off, then welded back on. At least, that's how it is on my 01.
