My car was in an accident this weekend, and besides the hood and bumper, one of my headlights was broken.

My question is, will a body shop repair the car to what it was before the accident, or to the OEM spec? I really don't want to end up with one JDM headlight and one USDM one...or even two USDM ones, for that matter.

Also, my CF hood got messed up, is it likely I'll be able to get a new CF hood, and not just an OEM hood?

The accident was 100% the other persons fault, so their insurance will be paying for it, not mine.

I haven't decided on a shop yet, so any input is appreciated...

I doubt it's legal to put a JDM headlight on a NADM car.

Awesome. So I'll have to get new USDM headlights and the harness rewired, only to get a new set of JDM lights after I get my car back and rewire and install them again :nut:
