Not sure if yours is right or left. I have a right hub from an 01 base available. (Prices so low we can't list them here...) If you might want it, let me know and I'll send you the part numbers so you can see if it's same as the S.

Seeing your pic, I'd want to check the aluminum sub-frame, then replace everything on that side from the sub-frame out. Need it from an S or better condition? Call Woody: 512-925-9171

Luckily the front hub is the same on the base and S. It's the rear thats different. I'm betting your upright is bent

I'm at work right now, I may give you a call tomorrow afternoon. honestly I'm hoping nothing is more damaged than what I can observe, have the car on jack stands and both sides look identical, have checked the subframe also, though another main concern is getting another radiator bracket also since that is mangled and I think affects my headlight positioning.

Speed doesn't kill, It's the sudden stop that does.

Just to clarify, If you want the part from me (in the picture) PM me. If you want other used parts at a good price, call Woody at the number I posted.
