W205 front bumper damage
Hi everyone I'm new in here. I had an accident last week and the guy ran away. I can't claim my insurance for some reason and mercedes ask to much for replacing the items and repair. I could do it myself but can't find any instructions that would tell me if anything missing or where the hoses and wires connected to.please help me out with some advice and pictures that I could get the items right. Also the car drives fine but some massage for"collision prevention assist plus inoperative"and "active bonnet malfunction".

This is probably nothing you're going to be able to repair yourself. In addition to needing a bumper assembly (cover and inner shell), a right (and possibly center) splitter, and probably a right fender liner, wire harnesses repaired, the bumper has to come off the car, the new cover primed, painted and cleared, then reinstalled. Then the car needs to go to MB to have the fault codes cleared, presuming no modules were damaged.
Probably $3k worth of parts and labor when it's over. Not sure how a hit and run driver causes damage to the lower right front corner of your bumper, or why there's no insurance on the car, but unfortunately if you don't have an expensive car insured and you run it in to something you're going to be out of pocket.
As long as its drivable I guess start saving up a couple grand or just live with it.
