Its painful just looking at these pics never mind the actual car.

At a good repair shop, it's going to cost you around $2K and this isn't including the $400 to replace the hood. This is my guess.

Bumper. Hood. Paint. Blending. Labor. Install time. Good luck.

I had similar damage when I got rear ended at about 10 mph. The front dove under the back of a pickup (which had no bumper) and the hood suffered a pretty deep gash. They replaced the front and rear bumpers and repaired the hood. Cost was $3280 (to the other guy's insurance, luckily).

Sorry to hear about your accident. From the pictures, it looks like the front bumper cover can be repaired. The hood might have to be replaced though. Not sure if they can repair an aluminum hood.
