New bonnet
New left side middle grille
Hows the wing?
Headlight will be a pain to deal with as the frame that holds it in is fragile and will cause the headlight to probably sit up too much after a little bump like that! ,,
If you go through insurance its GONE! Almost a guarantee!
At a guess on parts,
Bonnet £50
Grille £20

The wings don't appear to be bent. Gunna get a quote from insurance as its free and no obligation. Heard a hissing noise afterwards so suspect the radiator is cracked. Headlight not working too

It's a write off, doesn't look like you've got any chassis damage though, if you can avoid the insurance, just repair it yourself.

Ahh man that sucks! Wrong time of year too! I feel for you.
I'd say
Slam panel
Bonnet
Grille
Bumper strip
Possibly Radiator, Headlight/s depending on damage to the back and hopefully not much else as it doesnt look like it went too far back.
Worst bit will be sorting out the shut lines around the headlights etc tbh, but should just need a bit of tweaking i'd have thought.

No it was a Ford Fiesta Mk6. The fronts quite low anyway and with the heavy braking the bonnet took the damage rather than the bumper.
