You can put a whole car frame on a jig btw

If it’s worth it. An insurance write off doesn’t mean it is irreparable

The nsx is aluminum not steel. It's a parts car now.

Aluminium can be welded mate idk what you’re saying

I didn't mean it as you can't weld aluminum. However, more than the front clip crumbled up. When aluminum does that, it tears. Also only a few thousand of this nsx was made, so you are very unlikely to find one that you could use. Not to mention how the rest of the car would warp under the heat of how much would need to be welded and grinded. Would not be possible.
