I went into the garage to assess the o/a damage to my truck following it's little off road adventure on Christmas eve.

So far I need to replace....

front right fender.
upper (large) brace.
Headlight rim.
Bumper mount.
Bumper.(The one on it's only a few months old)
Grill. (Ideally, but it should be repairable).
Steering wheel. aka Pretzel!

There is also a very slight ripple in the RH cowl below the heater intake.
A split has also appeared on the drivers side fender lip.
The right rear fender took a hit to but that's a relatively easy repair.

Still to do:
Drop some lines from the chassis and measure the diagonals to establish if the chassis has been tweaked. (I sure hope not!)
Check condition of RH front suspension and steering as the camber has increased dramatically,i'm hoping it's just the upper arm has slipped.

Check and repair a slight ding on the rim of the wheel,also check it for runout and replace the tyre.
