Default '97 Front Bumper Cost?

Hello Everyone,

I just drove my Used-to-Be-Lovely Teg into the side of a highway, thanks to the snow my stupidity.

I tried to change lanes going about 35-40mph and I just started losing control - is it called fishtailing? Well I swung left and then swung right, meanwhile I was saying "oh sht" and braking lightly. (I *should* have kept on the gas, I know.) Well, it was one of those slow-motion moments in life when you see what's coming, but even then you're already in denial, thinking "naw...I'm not really gonna hit the wall " and of course I did. :squint: Hit the concrete wall doing about 15-20mph.

SO, MY QUESTION: I crushed the front bumper, but the hood looks almost completely straight. Engine bay is OK. What's the ballpark figure on how much it'll cost to replace the bumper and make very minor adjustments (I'm talking one or two degrees) to the hood?

PS: There's a matching colored front bumper that's on Ebay at this very moment. Should I buy this part and take it to a body shop?
