we'll hopefull the insurance company doesnt look at the pics and goes... welll we have to return it to its "stock" condition it was before the accident, because thats what was covered in your insurance policy, and not an aftermarket front bumper or hood, ...by seeing the pics or inspecting the car....and hope u do get the hood and bumper u want1

dude take it to an expensive body shop like fix auto and something to get your quote then insurance sends you a check then you can go to the bodyshop of your preference order your parts and have em tidy it all up, thats what i did with my jetta the damage was a lil less than yours but i was able to afford a full body makeover shop quoted me 5k i took it to a legit shop i know he charged me 2.5 for the fix and i brought the parts i wanted whick came up to 1k and the rest of money was pocketed :D

MIKE... most insurance companies write the check to body shop that quoted it for the amount they quoted it for if the insurance adjuster agrees to it. They pay everything (the other cars insurance). The amount of the repairs is gonna make the other drivers INSURANCE go through the roof 
It pays to know someone who owns their own shop and have a legit history, so they can do as MIKE SAYS ....
edit: If any other repairs are needed they will send another check to the repair company.... thats what happenned with IZZY's car... after all was fixed he had water in a tailamp and the insurance company sent another check to the repair shop for the tailight...
