Front end damage and replacement

Hey all, new to civic forums... I have a 99 civic LX, was recently in somewhat of a fender bender. Rear ended an suv that had an attached tow hitch. Hood was pushed back, tow hitch went through front end, destroyed the underlying bumper and on into the radiator. Was just wondering if anybody else has had a similar experience in repairing this type of damage. Any tips or info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

doesnt look to bad you may be able to straighten out the rad saddle if not weld a new one in and throw on a new bumper and cover with new hood and new rad and you should be golden
