Default RST peeps , get ready to cry :( (updated pics 6/24)

leslie ended up driving the truck today cuz i wanted to drive the car, well she ended up rear-ending somebody on the way home.
she's fine , just alittle shook up.
but truck got it pretty bad.................
from what i can tell ,everything from the headlights down are toast, got an apointment with AB Carstar tomorrow to get an estimate...

EDIT~~had carstar look at it and all the headlight assb's are toast most of the front behind the bumper and grill are toast. even got the very tip of the hood, so they are painting the stripes on the hood and spolier for the same price as 1 stripe kit just for the hood, so i told them to go ahead and do it

well mainly in rainy and dry weather, they are fine, but because of it being a low-profile tire it doesnt have much tread to begin with,it sucks in the snow.... im pretty sure i have posi, but i live in KC and its been a bad winter and havent been able to afford a good winter set....and use it as a DD

got my truck back today from the bodyshop (AB Carstar)

they painted on the stripes cuz the decals were a lot more than just painting them on.(they were faded and cracked anyway)

im still waiting on the Regency grill and licence bracket..
turned out great in person, and even buffed out a scratch i had on the door from a friends dog..
