For the price of a bumper and wing, some paint and a headlight plus some bits & pieces it can be done. But the insurance just want to send it to salvage. So I declined their offer and wait to see what they will do next.
Over here I would not accept a penny from the insurance company for what amount to about a 500-600 pound repair. It would cost double or triple that or more in increased premiums over the next 5-10 years. Even spreading the repairs over a couple of months to ease the damage to my wallet would be a better choice for me. Make it driveable first and pretty second, if necessary.

Cheers,
Glenn
