18 pics of my body repair work...front bumper, fender, grill

Here are the pictures of my body work. The pictures dont really do the damage justice...
I used bondo (pink stuff) and bondo hair (green stuff) for the work.
I think I did a pretty good job. Im still working on the grill. It'll look great.
I have the black headlights ready to go back in and I'm picking up the carbon hood and
body kit this weekend. I'll post pics while I'm putting it back together and afterward.
Shes gonna be primered for a while until I can do the rest of the bodywork beofre she gets
completely painted.

How hard is it to do something like this? And what's the approximate cost of your materials there?
