hah...wow that estimate is a lil reduculus i think...when i wrecked mine a couple years back i had something similar happen well it blew 3 of the 4 lights no hood damage and the bumper looked fine..well when i got home and took the bumper off.....the reinforcement bar had been crushed in and pushed into the ac condenser, the bar mounts that go in the frame were pulled inward and a couple other braces were bent up....i fixed it all myself including replacing the airbags and sensors. ended up costing me with buying a full kit $3000. i didn't have colision insurance on my car, i only had liablity so i couldn't even total the car so i had to fix it. im glad i did....i've put bout 40k miles on it since the accident and no problems at all. good luck with whatever you decide to do
