2007 Cobalt LS vs Deer

I will try and get pictures up as soon as they are developed... but in the meantime, I am looking for some parts. (Sunburst Orange Metallic - or primed/black)

Hood, Front Bumper, Headlights (passenger headlight mounting hardware). Radiator needed as well. Doesn't have to be stock items, as long as they look good and are quality.

I might as well get 4 new rims and tires while I am at it.

Any trustworthy places ship to Canada? Any local places to look for parts (Halifax is a 2hrs drive, no problem to get there).

Thanks for your help, everyone.

maybe he does have insurance but does not want to put it through because it will jack up his price

Damien has some headlights for sale Snakes709 they are stock SS S/C ones so they should have a bronze tint to them.
what model front bumper you looking for?
LS, LT, SS, SS S/C
Rad call vince hanes or the one that begines with a "C" i forget how to spell it and i dont have my phone book handy, but thats where i got my bumper support, rad, the black front bumper peice from and it was $490
as for screws if thats what you mean or the black housing for the headlights, i would get them from the junk yeards too.
best of luck.
i just recently sold my hood. but i still have bumpers. and trunk.

I do have full insurance, but I would rather have a better set of lights/hood/bumper than what comes stock on the LS. Also, I think my deductable is $1000.

Here is what I am thinking (please let me know if this doesn't make sense)... Get the coolant leak and the body work priced out. If it would cost me 2grand myself, or $1000 through insurance, I would rather pay the full price myself and save the claim for another time.

So if the rad repair costs $600, can I buy a new hood/bumper/lights for $1400?
I do like the ss bumper, but have seen ones I like more. Headlights that are bright would be a bonus.
Where can I buy those online? Any ideas if there are good Canadian online distributors?

heck if you really wanted to all it is a new hood and headlight in the mean time the bumper is still on there pretty solid.

but get the whole SS kit 2nd gen lights or 3rd gen's and a CF hood and trunk

That hood could be fixed pretty easily and would save you money on buying a new one

Thanks for the input and replies everyone. Turns out everything is going through insurance, the estimate is $4300.00 for everything... I will spend my money on new rims and tires instead.
