Got into an Accident...

I rear ended someone on the highway a few days ago and I'm really worried about how much its going to cost to fix. There is frame damage and thats whats making me nervous. Can they bend it back? I lost my grille as you can see also. Im gonna need a new front bumper and hood as well.

The drive is fine and the bend is not that bad so hopefully they can bend it back. I can't feel it so.

its not your frame that is bent, probably just radiator support, they just need to replace it. little welding and good to go.
did you break the condenser?

Doesn't look too serious, but never know sometimes till the body shop starts taking it apart to see if there is any hidden damage.
