Not sure what I'll do with it. I don't think I want to rebuild it again. The doors open ok. The windshield isn't even broke from what I can see. I just don't have the desire to do it again. I'm pretty disgusted about it.

That's too bad. I feel for you. After I hit my deer last fall it took me 9 months before I decided to replace the fender and 11 months to replace the windshield. Now I'm glad I did. I was ready to sell it but finally changed my mind. My car's not as nice as yours. I hope you decide to rebuild. If not, I'm interested in the body kit.

Woah woah woah. Don't part it out. If anything sell it as a whole. I'm sure somebody would be willing to keep a clean Festiva on the road for the right price.Axlander9289, brother of ThisVelologist

Man, that sucks. Your damage is alot worse than mine was. But I know what you're feeling. After I hit my deer, was so mad, just wanted to give up on the Batstiva. But, cooled off a couple of days, found the parts I needed, and put her back on the road. Good luck if you decide to repair it.

The kit held up great! Sucks about the rest of the car though...
My thoughts? Rebuild it... but then again, I'm the one that built my car 3 times over...
