Ive just stacked my R. Ive still got to put it through the insurance, but its quite a mess.

The damage seems to be mostly outer panels (hood, bumper, head/fog lights,wing), but the inner wing (the one the outer wing bolts to is slightly bent for about the first six inches, and I cant see any easy way of replacing this, as the panel eventually is blended into the shock tower. After the bent six inches, its alright though (ie all holes/fixings are the same distance from the windscreen on both sides, and both shock towers are unaffected. Has anyone experienced this before, and can it be repaired. Also, will the combined costs of these panels make the car uneconomic to repair (ie write off). The power steering resivior and washer bottle also were destroyed in the impact, and the air conditioning evaporator (the part in front of the rad) has some freon leaking from the inlet tubing, although the rad seems unaffected (no steam, not loosing fluid).

Cheers for your help
