It'd be better to find any hidden damages before purchase rather than after. Best of luck with this car if you decide on getting it!
true, but look at this car i don't see any severe damage, bring a mobile ODB2 scanner and scan the ECU check if the front bar still OEM or replaced, if the bar still OEM then the car is ok, look at the hood its an OEM hood and minor damaged, i worked for bodyshop for couple years by the way. We cut car in half and put them together we do pull-frame too.
