Hard to tell from the pics, but I don't see bumper distortion, which leads me to surmise the uni body frame structure might likely be intact and unbent. A careful inspection and a trip across a frame machine would tell that story properly..... otherwise, looks to be sheet metal, ie fender panel and perhaps hood.
Paint replacements to match.. unbolt, rebolt... fit... done... maybe... Air bags deploy? [considerable expense there]. "It will buff right out".... On Mon, Oct 30, 2017 at 2:25 PM, Kaleb C.
