$500 for a mostly complete FI Spider isn't bad. Just don't try and talk yourself into trying to fix it.

Even the bumper didn't save that one. It looks completely unscathed.
Someone on this forum would dare fix it, we've seen more labor intensive projects.

It does prove that these cars have a good crumple zone. Unscathed? I doubt. Looks like the door gaps on the PS are closed up. I would expect the entire unibody to be tweeked. Looks like camber is a effed up, which means the crossmember in no longer in place. Surprised the windshield survived the wreck.
