Sorry to hear that. Find a friend who does body work and have him unbend your hood, if possible, and get a new bumper. Does not look that bad at all. The worst is that hood, which may be able to be fixed
Those rims look nice tho, what are they and what size?

the bumper can also be fixed i think (aas kit), the hood i think maybe too... it needs new headlights and new hedlight mounting panel... needs new hood lock, the lock release wire. needs new rotors and brake pads because of the weather in the UK they rusted compleately.
As for the rims they are drag racing rims a copy of the BMW m3 original rims (something simmilar to them) and they are r17

New hood....absorber (white foam piece behind bumper), possible re-bar? hood latch, radiator support could have damage along with the radiator...A/C condenser just by looking at where the damage is and the way the hood is pushed up. theres no telling until you get the bumper off then you will see more damage. Good luck.......

Hopefully you can get it back on the road.
Did you blow the air bags? If you didn't bust the a/c condenser and the raditor it shouldn't be that hard to fix.
Same exact thing happened to my Delta. I hate stupid drivers

Saddest thing I've ever seen. Did you hit a Volvo? That looks an awful lot like my girlfriend's Focus after one stopped in front of her. I swear, they're made out of solid steel. Because of the slope of the bumper, her car went a little under it. 3k estimated repairs, totaled. I wish the best of luck to you dude, I know how much it sucks.
