Golden opportunity, Ran over a deer..... need some opinions

Insurance company just wrote me a $1200 check for damages on my vehicle. I plan on supplementing the damages to $1700.

The extent of my damage is minor, replace front bumper and OEM areo kit, replace rear bumper, repair the core support...etc.... Which I can do all myself in a couple of hours

I have the full OEM Areo kit. I have a few ideas.
-Retun it the way it was
-Mold the Areo kit to the bumper so there is no lip line
-Get a more aggressive front and rear cover. Perhaps something thats not as mild as the areo

Get a more agressive front and rear cover, or just a more aggressive lip kit. Or replace it all for cheap and throw the money into an engine/turbo fund.

Well first of all, sell the deer meat to a butcher, and with that money, get air suspension on your new ride!
