Ok i wrecked my 87 but it is nothing serious or i think it isnt....please tell me if i damaged anything else than i think i did...

ok i bumped into the back of someone going 5 or 10 mph...it was a suv and my car went underneath it...it pushed the front nose down some and broke out my drvier side parking light....now my hood will open but i think that the bumper is rubing it...that is why im going to fix it this weekend....do you all think i might have wrecked anything else besides that...i mean it still riders good...??? im just wondering...the reason i hit the women....she took off and slamed on the brakes and whne i turned around becasue i was seeing if anyone was coming which there wasnt...i bumped into her....she had no damage...but me...ohh my nose is also cracked from her trailer hitch...it went right through but ddidnt hit anything else...

The only way to tell of other damage is to remove the nose and look. The "egg crate" absorbtion bumper probably got damaged and maybe the driving light bracket, headlight assembly.

damn that sounds like a lot of just bumping someone....i know it pushed the nose down and the lights work fine...except when i put them down last night one of the covers didnt want to go down so i opened the hood and drop it..and everything was fine...

well a of right now i dont have the time...school kind of keeps you busy with test an shit as which i should be studying for a couple tomorrow lol....

how will i tell if there is damage..cracked? bent? any certin thing i should look for becasue i already have a replacemetn bumper

Make sure the radiator didn't get whacked by anything.

with just that bump it couldnt have caused any suspension problems? and my hood looks higher but like i said my nose is pushed down a little....

when i put the other nose on there it should be lined up right?

The core support might have been bent but that should pop back into place. It's just sheet metal. Have a BFH handy, but don't use it on the plastic, only the metal (you knew that already) :)

well i think that the only thing is the nose got damage....but like i said i dont have the time right now....well i found a box with keys in it....i never knew i had anything under there LoL...it is all good for right now...

the only thing is...when i looked at my hood...i have a slight bump in the middle towards the bottom where the nose is...does urs have one? i havent really noticed it..since today...im thinking it has been there or maybe not who knows..shit...
