What is the part number on this particular part. The guy at the bodyshop said i need a new frame rail? Car is ready to go in the bodyshop, and i will need the replacement pretty soon. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Tayyab.

Doesn't look to me that the frame rail is damaged. I'd guess that you just need the headlight bucket and the little piece behind it. Probably looking about $350. If they have a Mitchell manual the bodyshop should be able to look up the PN.

Take some pics of the frame rail with the battery removed. Don't get too close up.

I guess I should have said battery *and* tray need to be removed.

From the pics it looks like the rail could be bent slightly but it would be better to have it straightened rather than replaced. It doesn't look bad at all to me.
