Doesnt look that hard a hit to me, could be wrong though. Bonnet is the thing that gives that appearance. It is alloy and they bend very easy. Bumper, fiberglass and they also disintegrate over nothing. Looks like the bumper had no reo behind it?
Can see the end of the chassis rail and from the looks of it its not too bad. Probably up for a new upper rad support, bonnet, guard, grill, bumper, headlight, FMIC core and possibly a rad?

How fast were you going, how hard a hit was it?

Haha what i meant was, "bloody Volvo drivers" in reference to them getting in the way, pulling out in front etc, etc. "bloody SUV drivers" cant see over their front when looking to pull out of a corner, just being bigger than me etc. No disrespect meant. Just trying to lighten up what would otherwise be a upsetting thread. Same would apply to the SS commodore driver who would yell "get a real car" at me. "bloody commodore drivers"

Takes a lot more than that to set an air bag off.

Having an airbag go off in your face, from what im told, is not a pleasant experience (black eyes etc possible). So you'd kinda want the impact to be worth it.
