Yeah, for what sounds like a low speed collision that bumper didn't do a very good job.

You've got A Lot of damage there. If you go the cheap route and fix the hood and fender you can probably get off with $3500. But the way I would want it done....you're looking close to 6g's! (that's only in body work....but from the looks of things, nothing else should be damaged. How's the A/C working?
