front end structure removal
guys i got a question about my fc's front end.
So while i was at work, some guy backed into my car and just drove off like he did not even notice it. and wen i get off work i find that my whole front end got pushed in at a point and it looks like a "v" now. luckily there was no engine damage. but the bumper support was smashed in the backets holding it got messed up too and the radiator support got messed up. the beem that is holding up the hood clip also got pushed up. i also need a new turbo hood.
so now that you hear the damage. i got a whole new front end from a junkyard including the head lights and radiator which i dont really need. so i basically got from the front half of the front wheel well and up including the headlights and the radiator support, etc.
so i was wondering, could i just unbolt the front end of it and just do the replacing myself or do i have to get someone to get some welding done?
i have been trying to search for a diagram of the front structure but i could only find stuff on the front bumper. any help would be appreciated. thanks
