Well, everyone takes arty pics when the car's being built or shown, so why not do some at the end too?
Oh, I have a new car. Just wait, it's awesome.

Gutted .
Slam panel, Wings, Bonnet, Bumper, and headlights would fix it easy enough, but most likely it'll be written off as its a good £500 worth at a garage, and that's back to standard .

You could fix that mate, it doesn't look that bad. It's only slam pannel, headlights, bonnet, crash bar and two wings.

That can be fixed, if you really want it too. Mine was fixed, costing the insurance company £1400 after my £350 excess 
A KA did that much damage at about 10mph. Although yours looks worse, mine still needed a new bumper, like your will. You've done the maximum amount of damage to get it fixed like mine was imho, unless there is structural damage etc.

I can't see any damage to the chassis rails but I'll have to cut off the damaged parts to tell properly. In all honesty I'll probably not repair this one, but save the parts I can and put them onto a newer shell.
Now I've got the Cav to run me around I can take my time sorting this out.
It was a fairly low speed accident, didn't even blow the pretensioners. Only thing that had me worried was that the drivers door was catching a bit on the frame, but that could just be down to the hinges moving in the accident...
