    VR and VS Bumpers fit and will suit it. Total loss means the repair cost would outweigh the value of the vehicle.

    Have you got any pictures under the bonnet? Looks a bit rough!

    not sure how its works in other states? if the insurer rites a car off here in melb it has to go thru a viv check with pic to get it back on the road,oh and a viv check in melb is about $600 i think....it will not need a viv if you keeping it and plan on fixing it and not tellong the rego people in your state....the prob with a viv check is when its time to sell to another owner it will come up as needing a viv check on rta computers...not sure how it works in your state...cheers
