The hood shifted on it's hinges, and became 'more rounded' for lack of a better term(see 1st pic with the white fenders on it). It would no longer sit flush with the fenders. Probably an easy fix for a body man, but, I had insurance money

Besides, the hit busted the nylon piece that the release spring rides on, in order to open the hood I had to use a large pry bar which screwed up the rolled lip pretty badly.
Full damage including shipping was $1495. That still doesn't account for the lighting, roughly another $500-ish.
