Default Need help, wreck car

Sup, well if you notice the topic title i need some help finding parts for my car. I let my brother borrow my car on April 1, 2007 to go to an engagement and he repays me by rear ending someone. So know my insurance premium will eventually increase and i need help finding some parts for my car. My car is a 2005 sebring silver s2000. The damage that i notice so far is the right passenger side bumper, headlight and fender. I think there are also some damages underneath the bumper like the bumper support or something because i see some bend metal pieces underneath the bumper. I am looking for the following parts preferably in the NorCaL region

I prefer the parts to be sebring silver color but any color will do:

-2005 or ap2 front bumper
-OEM ap2 front lip
-2005 or ap2 passenger headlight
-2005 or ap2 passenger fender

BTW, is any year s2000 fender interchangeable? Meaning would a ap1 fender fit on an ap2 and vice versa.

Thanks in Advance.

Not sure if it's going to save you any money going outside of insurance. You're talking ~$2-3k for that damage, I think. Hopefully the "bent metal pieces) don't involve the front frame arms.

what front frame arm? U can only see the bent metal underneath the bumper. I have yet to take the bumper off yet but as far as i can see, the frame is untouched. Underneath the bumper is another thing, im not quite sure but i did see some metal bent? Maybe the bracket that holds the bumper or headlights? I won't know for sure until my appraiser come and take a look than ill will be taking the bumper off and see the hidden damages.

I think your estimate is on a good day. I had similar damage and the bill ran $7K. I think 4-6K is a good estimate range.

Why did you bill cost $7,000? What were the damages and what needed to be replaced or repaired?
