i havent order the salvage Z
To answer your question: it won't be easy to install the front radiator support or aluminum bumper frame b/c the front subframe horns are bent to hell. Everything functioned as it should have and absorbed the crash energy that would have otherwise injured you.

You'll need an experienced frame tech with a good welder to precisely cut and weld the front horns from your donor car to your Z. Spend some $$ on making sure the frame is totally straight b/c nothing will fit correctly if you don't. Cheap out and you're throwing good money after bad...

Depends on your insurance company. Sometimes they don't ask, so don't tell. Other times the vehicle has to be reconstructed in order to put any type of insurance on it.
