Drift Damaged FD
 
5 Attachment(s)
Hey guys, I know next to nothing about auto body and am looking for some opinions. A previous owner of my car drifted it into something (I dont know what) and it has left some substantial damage on the rear, due to this I cannot mount my rear right taillight because the mount is f*cked. Pictures attached, just looking for some ideas, could I fab a mount for the light or something? Anyone done similar repairs?
Thanks

You can chop off the unusable areas and add a "bash bar" type of support for the rear section. You will most likely have to with an after market rear bumper.

Something similar to this pic:

Good luck with your build OP

You know of anyone that's done this before to an fd? Or a build somewhere where a similar thing was done
