I say save the money and leave the cosmetic stuff as is. Fix the mechanical stuff and the car will last a few more years. She can use that cash towards a new car the longer she keeps this one. These cars also hold value pretty well. We're talking about a Honda Accord here, not some classic that history would miss. The motors on these things are near bulletproof and last a really long time if maintained properly. I guarantee upgrading brakes, tires, etc..etc... will be far more beneficial to her wallet than a shiny new hood and bumper.
