I have a 03 core support in my 2000. It can be done, I just don't have a grill installed, and need to remove a bracket,

I have a lot of questions that only Galant center can answer
I have gotten my self into a bad front end accident. I can start fresh and make it look how I want. My 03 Galant stock is not appealing to the eye. I want it to look like an 01. Is it possible with a few mods?

forgot to mention what iv done so far before joining this website.
full story of what i hit, where, if i was drinking, and how fast i was going because these questions all ways come up.
Radiator and one of the fans had to be replaced. I bent the crash bar and radiator support back into place. I don't have the tools to change the radiator support
Beam will come in as soon as I fix the rest of the car.

if ur roof still looks like that, i'd get another car and start over IMHO
so i am trying to piece your accident together you hit a sign so i understand the front damage and then the back of your is all messed up, how did that happen when your windshield is unscathed?
after seeing the roof damage I'd get another car. front end can be fixed but the roof is part of the main body
plz get another G,
i recked my g just last month and had to repalce the core support, after we pulled the old one off we noticed it was replaced before i owned the car, i knew it was in a reck but not this bad, and im not happy with it any more, so im looking into another G possibly a GTZ, at the beginning of the yr, i have alot invested in my G yet im just not happy anymore, i only did the front end so it didnt look like an eye sore going down the rd and i already purchase all the parts,
your looking at a comlpete lose unless you replace the roof, and its alot of work, same with the core support
If the roof repair were feasible, you'd probably have to replace it outright, meaning cut it out and reweld another one in. It'd be hard as hell to straighten out the current one and get it back to where the window would fit back perfectly. And that don't include the possible (more like probable) tweaking of the entire roof and pillar structure since the roof got caved in, pulling the c-pillars closer to each other. I'd definitely look into taking the money and getting another one. Good luck, keep us posted either way.

Wtf are you guys talking about that shit will buff out! Nah but in all seriousness get another car cause it ain't even worth the hassle of repairing probably cheaper too.
Thanks for the feedback and everyone's opinion.. Finished putting in the bumper + grill this morning.
Its not as bad as it looks. Body shop is charging me $150 for the roof but need a glass to line it up. Not include paint job.
Rain sucks cuz i get water come into my trunk. Damp rid is my best friend.
Hit the sign, came off the ground, and hit the roof in mid air, shattering my windshield. Pictures tomorrow of my trash bag -_-
I will not be getting rid of my car any time soon. I just bought the title for it.
Ill make it convertible before i sell this car. (Like a BOSS)

Getting it done with fresh coat of paint
Not bad you still need to tweak your front end alittle.
Only sonata f5m42 swapped. N/A build in motion.
IDK looks like you made decent progress, but with damage like that any insurance company would have automatically Salvaged the car as a total loss, & with good reason. The car will never be the same unfortunately. I hope you reconsider selling the car and getting another one worth your while...
You know what I condone this repair . Regina was bought as a dead yard dog and we had a good run ...
I say plan this paint job carefully ..one that will make your dream come true and get a roof spoiler your gravy...
Good work bro.
