So basically I ran into the corner of my garage/carport and smashed in my front bumper, headlight, and fender on the driver side . Thankfully my insurance is going to cover it so I'm trying to figure out how much it will cost to fix myself. If anyone has a picture or knows where I can find one that shows what's located behind the driver side front bumper I would really appreciate it.

how far down on the bumper, the drives pretty much has nothing behind it realy just the Intake box, but the washer, and factory cooler is on the passenger side.

Sorry about the mistake, we've all been there :/

Pretty much all the way down. That's what I thought too but I swear I saw some thin SS tubes leading to the radiator in that corner in one of the pictures.

Do these pics help. This was taken after my GTM SC was installed, so don't let the FMI and Oil Cooler confuse you. As others have mentioned, there's not much behind the driver's side bumper. The only aluminum lines that might be near that side of the bumper would be the A/C lines running to/from the condenser in the front of the radiator.

If the damage is more than a couple inches in area, and they are a reputable body shop and don't cut corners, they will most likely just replace the bumper. For the job to be done right the old paint must come off. The bumper is plastic so the only way to get the paint off the bumper to prep for new paint is to sand off the paint. This will take 3 to 4 hours and at a rate of 80 to 100 bucks an hour. The shop can get a new bumper cover for $270 (unpainted and unprimed with the return of your old bumper). If the bumper was metal they could just strip the paint chemically take maybe an hour or so. But you cant use this chemical on the plastic because it will melt it. I live in CT and have the moon light white so it has a 3 stage paint which cost more but I was quotes for new bumper cover, paint to match and install from between $850 to $1050.
