    Golf MK2 Crash - WARNING: Images may be saddening.

    Good morning everyone,

    I regret to inform you with deep sadness that I have had a minor crash in my golf 2 . Luckily, it appears that everything in the engine bay is in tact, including the radiator! However, everything in between the radiator and the plastic bumper is bent and damaged in some way.
    I'm a bit of a newbie when it comes to my golf and in particular the body. So I thought I would turn to the experts and geniuses of vwwatercooled for a bit of advice/help/comfort/shouldertocryon.

    My questions are:
    1. Has this happened to anyone here? how did you proceed?
    2. I'm looking to learn and do this myself if possible, last resort is send it to the shop. So I need to figure out what parts to replace and where to get second hand parts etc. I hear Camden GTI can have some great part finds!

    Anyway, so far I know that I need to:
    - Fix or source a bonnet
    - Fix or source the radiator support
    - Fix that cracked part behind the big bumper in the picture...not sure what it's name would be?

    My aim is to basically learn more about the front end and do it as cheap as possible (poor uni student cliché). Any advice or information would be greatly appreciated! Photos are below.
