Body work recommendations please
I'm new here. Looking for some recommendations.
I have a 2010 Mazda 5 that I got from a little old lady, have had it about a year.
I rear-ended another driver doing 20-25 mph and the steering wheel air bag deployed on my 2010 Mazda 5. Dented the hood, scratched the bumper, etc. but doesn't look like MAJOR damage or a total (though I wouldn't really know how to tell if it was major/total. It will start up and drive, EXCEPT the fan sounds like it's scraping something near the radiator. (the radiator support looks bent or broken)
It has super low miles so I want to keep it. I would like to get it repaired without going through insurance, (for reasons that aren't important here). Maybe find somebody who works at a body shop and does work on the side.
Any suggestions about how to proceed?
