Dropped the car off at the mechanic Friday morning, picked it up yesterday morning. Used the $125 Meyele control arm. Part arrived a day late, but it worked out.

Car tracks the same as it did pre-accident: perfectly straight. No alignment in the near future. I'll post a pick of the torn bumper cover. Looks like an easy repair, and I'll be asking for opinions on repair or replacement. The tear is ~1"x1". Anyhow...

Tow home from accident 5 miles $60/$10 tip
Tow to mechanic 28 miles $120/$10 tip
Control arm $125
Mechanic $80/$20 tip

$425 total

Could have been a lot worse. I will be purchasing larger wrenches... for if I had them I could have done it in my driveway. Thank you, again, fellas for the help!
