I don't think this is a good thing.....the upper strut mount itself looks like its destroyed because the "bell shaped cone" is staying up higher than the right side.

Take a look at the pics and tell me what you folks think. I was told that BMR makes a strut tower brace that can keep this part of the tower together, but I'm not too sure about that.




Would you buy this car???
Walk away. I would be curious to see what the insurance estimate would be on the repair or if they would total it being structural
