Default First jeep and its going to a lot of work


This is my first jeep a 2007 2 door Rubicon that rolled. So far I have priced out all of the body parts that need replacing. Now I need a estimate on paint. If the paint and body work are too much I might end up selling. After doing a lot of searching I have found the following:
Aftermarket fenders $99 each
Aftermarket hood $170
OEM cowl $70
Used Doors $625
Used windshield frame $400
Oem new grille $135

I have learned a lot from reading on this site and will show pictures of the end result. If anybody else has done a fixer like this I would like to hear some feedback on whether it was worth it.
