Red face i need your help guys (curse of the sunlight silver)

so, just my luck, i smashed in the front end of my car pretty damn bad, luckily i was ok, but my car sure as hell wasnt, so here it goes...
ive been wanting to get a ms kit or replica for quite some time but im too damn poor. i wanted to ask you guys if its possible for me to tell the repair shop to put on a ms front instead of the original AND how i would go about doing that. this is like the only damn thing im looking forward to cause my insurance bills aint gunna be pretty from here on out. if you guys can help me itd be greatly appreciated. i wouldve taken pictures of my car for you guys to check out but it was just to depressing. thanks for any help guys.

You've got an Evo VIIII coming very soon, and you say you are poor. Here's what you do: get your insurance company to total your 8 and go get your Evo today.

As long as the price is the same or lower they shouldn't have a problem. If it costs more...i think it will, you will have to come out of pocket to offset the cost, unless the shop can do some funny number crunching and then tell your insurance company to give them more money for the repair.

yeah, havent changed that yet, lets just say i USED to have enough money for two cars. not anymore, (life has a way of kicking you in the ***** from time to time) , quite tragic . So i should just let the body shop know that i want a different front, now, can anyone suggest any ms replicas that dont have fitment issues, cause it seems like im not gunna be able to go with the real thing and everyone and their mother has complained about fitment w all the replicas ive seen. thanks again guys

authentic ms front @ wholesale price [or the price the shop will be buying it at] is approx. 400 more dollars than the factory air damn w/ appearance package piece and rotary crest [this is directly from mazda $$$ not a store or something]

enjoy
