looks repairable, i'd expect some more damage to the front end etc if it was going to do anything too bad.

span my 200sx in the wet (bloody auto box kick down!!!!) and some bloke piled into the side of me after the worst slowing down attempt i've ever seen (infact i don't even think he tried despite me being sat on his side of the road)

put some right bad camber on the rear wheel, and all it was was the lower suspension arm was bent, looked loads worse than it was, someone even bought it spares & repairs and drove it like 150 miles away to fix it up lol

Dude Looks like the crossmember has bent a bit in that pic too. You'll also need a headlight clip to secure the headlight providing you manage to get it in...
