Default Recent Car Accident and needing advice

New member here, who has moved out here from NC. My good ole 2000 S70 took me all the way. Recently her and I have had an accident(sobs). All the expenses are going to be out of pocket. I found a place that has all the salvaged parts. The only issue is I'm looking for place around longmont that won't screw me over for repairs. The current place it's at is saying 37.4 hours of labor equalling out to $2,133 just for labor. What I'm need to have done is replacement of both headlights/bumper/radiator/ radiator support panel. Also there is minor damage to the front left corner of the frame. They say the labor for that would be 12 hours...I sure as hell know that with a blown torch that can be done within 2. Any support is welcome and thank your in advance to anyone with advice.

Sorry in advance, but i would not put that kind of $$$ into a 2000 S70; it's a $$$ pit. Either DIY the repairs w/JY parts or cut your losses now.
