Not good

AMG makes it almost impossible to restore, because most insurance companies demand NEW parts.
As we discussed on the phone, AMG stops making parts before the last vehicle is built, and does not make more = if the warehouse has none you are SOL..
There are some cheap Asian knock off AMG parts/kits, that I would not use on a Zastava Koral (Yugo)...

Here is the story (still in litigation) of a beautiful 300SD, similar situation.
