Need some body parts

My sister has a 1993 300E that was involved in a hit and run earlier today. She only has liability on it so can't go through insurance and I figured I'd post here and see if anyone has any parts for sale or could recommend some places to parts from. It needs a hood, passenger headlight and passenger corner light for sure and it might need a passenger fender and passenger side parking light as well. I'm located in central Illinois so if anyone local to me has anything that would be awesome. I posted in big83bronco's thread and I imagine he will get back to me when he has a chance, but if anyone else happens to have some parts let me know.

i think this would be considered a total loss. the cost for repair would be more than just buying a new car. the fact that these cars are so old, makes it hard to find single parts for it.

check your local wrecking yard.
I'm hoping it's like what we've got here.
tons of W124s sit languishing.

Someone needs to get their facts straight.

So, I didn't know the cost of repair which would equal $1,400 roughly in new parts would get you a new car.

I would know since a friend of mine got into the exact same accident a few months back.

It's not hard to find a single part for our cars. You just don't know where to look.

Anyways, to the original poster - Where are you located?

I'm in Champaign, IL. I looked on Ebay and found some parts, but I'm not sure if I'm going to buy from there.
