Had fog lights but I took then off and replaced with grille mesh. Splash guards are still good just need to buy the plastic snap bolts to but it back onto the quarter panel. Frame I'm not so sure about, haven't taken a look at it too terribly close yet. I will have time Monday to assess all the damage. I do however have a couple more pictures that I will upload when I get on my computer. Currently using my phone.

damn that really sucks.
I have the fear of this happening everytime I am out on the road or parking my car somewhere.
It really sucks to be a minority (carwise) here.
But thank god the Alero folks are a tight-knit group.

Here are a couple more pictures I was able to take yesterday after picking it up from the impound lot.

It looks like the frame was pushed in where the headlight goes... That might be a problem.

Well whatever the unibody structure is called... the point is still valid. Theres structural components where the fender mounts and it can't be taken off.

So, got it to the garage. Looks like the (radiator support?) the metal above the radiator is bent back pretty bad tilting the battery. Also is touching the heat shield on the exhaust manifold. I have pics I will upload tonight

In this case the subframe is seemingly fine. Just above the radiator, maybe it's a header panel?

Okay, got some shots, and forgive me for being completely illiterate when it comes to the part names. The part that has the hood spring on it, that you can see is bent (pushing the battery back) what is this called, it's the only part I really need in order to get headlights in.

No, it isn't. Shouldn't be too terrible to fix. But what is the name of the part that the hood prop rod attaches to? It's pushing on the battery I need to get that replaced and riveted back straight so I can start replacing parts.

That part that supports the radiator is structural.... You can take the center piece off and replace it, but you can't take off the area where the headlight goes...
Trust me on this, because I've gone through 5 header panels, 3 fenders (2 on the same side), and so on. The part that pushed the battery up is part of the chassis (watch kwhack tell me Aleros don't have a chassis either, but won't tell me what the damn thing is called).
You're going to need to bend that piece of metal out.
