Wreck it yesterday

I got into a wreck on 11/20/2002. I just got an estimate for $1,380 to get it fixed. I rear ended an Explorer trust me it sucks. I barely even put a scratch on his car. Going to a junkyard this weekend to see if I can find parts. Does anyone know somebody with a front grill for a 97 CL? I haven't seen many in junkyards but i am trying to cut the price of fixing the car down. How much of the bumper does the wing west front lip cover?

How much of the front end did they replace

One of my headlights is going to be replaced, the hood is getting pulled out, the grill is being replaced, and the front bumper is getting replaced.

I am hoping when the take the bumper off they realize it needs to have the other light replaced too. I am also hoping that the hood can't be made to look right so they will have to replace it. if they replace it i wll try and get a carbon fiber hood replace ment.
