I just jacked up the car, all the suspension components seem fine, but the lower radiator mount is toast, and it's apparently spot-welded to the frame. My plastic undertray is pretty beat up, but the oil pan is perfect and the subframe looks fine also. At this point I know I'm going to need:

- new front bumper (probably buy an AP2 silverstone one used somewhere)
- new undertray
- new air pump bracket, maybe a new air pump
- new radiator mount + cutting out the old one and welding it on
- probably a new radiator since mine is bent to hell
- possibly a new hood latch (might be able to bend it back)
- new driver's side fender liner

look around alot of the spot welds to see if there are any defects around them. look for wrinkles. i'm sure if it hit the radiator support, the shock could have continued up to the main bulkhead area.
