hey, sorry to see about your luck...what happened to cause this??

i dont know any part # for control arms if your needing a control arm...

moog part # for lower ball joint is k5331 a cheaper line is mevotech..and the part # is mk5331
and for the tie rod the moog # is ES3459 a cheaper line mevotech part # MES3459 i dont know who sells mevotech in the states...but there parts are a good quality still ...not as good as moog obviously...but still better than what came on it originally...

as for the headlight...check ebay..people are always selling them on there for dirt cheap..

again sorry to hear about your car...what caused this to happen??

man sorry to hear it.
also another place you can check for the head lights and fenders is Keystone Auto.

they have a web site also and for the most part all major cites will have them of some sort. they are a supplier for body shops .
So most of the time you can find the parts cheaper threw them But they will only be in primer not painted.
As far the tierod etc... those would have to be purchased threw a atuo parts store in your area. Good luck and keep us in the loop/. If anyone sees oen maybe they can help do soemthing like that also.

This is why i wont get rid of the Full coverage on mine. it would be my luck also

Sorry to hear your Monte got damaged.

Some of the sources you can check for parts like inner fenders (look in the parts for sale board):
The 2k Monte Carlo site.
Dixie Monte Carlo Depot may be able to help?
Mike at Mike's Montes may be able to locate the parts for you but he mainly deals in the '81-88 Montes.

Sorry about your luck. You can get some good new and used parts on E-Bay that will work great and save tons on repairs.

BTW - What is it with Monte owners having Blazers as well. I've parked my 2000 Blazer for the summer.

Heh heh.... reminds me of a joke from Geiko.

I just saved a bunch of money on my car insurance by fleeing the scene of the accident!

I love that joke.
