There's a lot of small changes in these turds for different markets over seas. Some have no maf sensor,fewer air bags, no rocker moldings, different rear brakes in early models,available 1.0L,auto/start stop,full size spare,power folding mirrors,adjustable headlights,shelf above glove box,Different spoiler,no spoiler,lack of abs,different colors, no orange reflectors in headlight housing etc...
There aren't a ton of differences between us and canucky ones, mainly just tpms, drl and trim packages. And you guys don't get heated seats iirc.

Mohammad, i have already dismantled my bumper, fender. Headlight assembly. Pretty easy. I have a few pics of the spot welds where the radiator support is attached to the bumper reinforcement. I am considering straightening out my bumper reinforcement and radiator shrouds rather than drill them out and buy a new bumper reinforcement. I was quoted $650 for the bumper reinforcement, shrouds lower peice from salvage yard all still in one piece. If i have to i will but i will try to straighten it first. Also quoted $110 for just bumper reinforcement. Place in Chicago $90 new plus shipping. Fender and hood can get new (unpainted) or salvage reasonable. I can live stream on Twitch and answer any questions and show you what you are getting in to. Biggest issue will be how much damage has been done to the frame, for that we both need some measurements of original specs. car-part dot com will be a good source if you are looking to match the paint for fender and hood. Can't remember Chicago business name, i will find it if needed. (Red circle are the spot welds between the mounting plate and shroud)
Green scamatic parts are welded together. I need to know the measurements in the second pic.
