The car was rolled by some doofus that owned it before me. The cladding should hold up, a guy I know did it and he has about 75% success with them, we'll see what happens........

Now Hope....there is no need to go there now. well just seems that folks are hitting lots of deer, moose, or other large animals. and that's a lot more damage than yours, DJ. now aren't you glad yours wasn't completely demolished like that? yikes!  |

To a point. If it was written off I would be in either a brand new Celica GT-S or a Lexus IS300.  |

*****UPDATE*****
I guess the passenger side headlight and the A/C condensor are unsalvagable. Headlight from dealer is $396 CAD and the Condenser is....EGAD.....$683 CAD even tho I get employee cost an a local dealership! Hmm.... now looking for lightly used, as aftermarket stuff still isn't available, the Vibe's are still too new. Anyone wanna check a local dealer for me?

Ok I'm a little lost... I don't know the whole story behind your vibe... I don't visit genvibe all that much. You bought a wrecked vibe and are now trying to fix it all up? Was it that much cheaper to buy since it was wrecked?

Oh no prob, yea a an old customer and friend of mine is recertifing the vibe for me, as it was rolled about 4 months ago, he bought it at an auction and is fixing it for me. This is waaaay cheaper, and he does amazing work, as my family has bought a 2000 Focus, and a 2003 Base Vibe from him, with ZERO problems/defect, ect. A few things have gone awry with it, mostly parts availability and stuff.....besides doing this is like $20,000 cheaper than buying a 2005 new and about $14,000 cheaper than getting a used '03.
Anyways, in my last post I asked if someone could check a dealer for me, what I meant to type was a wrecker, see if anyone has a A/C condensor for a GT (its different) and a passenger side headlight.

check for both on ebay. i found 2 a/c condensers there, not sure if it was for the gt or base. and there is a rh headlight for sale going for like $65 usd. also, that guy w/ the trix is parting out his too. he might have the condenser for the xrs. but i think you said you already emailed him on that.
