Nope, diff design. If you get the 07 bumper, you have to get the fogs and stuff as well

Headlight still works but doesnt shine as bright as it use to and the ring around the projector is cracked, the switchback led i had came off "not sure if it still works" . so yeah i thinking I'm going to have my new headlight painted again.

i think theres a different grille design, too.

as for the accident, i think your number one concern should be paint matching on the new parts.

sorry to hear, and good luck
