That's not too bad of a hit at all. Did it get your radiator or A/C at all? Check the brackets for your fans too. They break pretty easily. The front impact bar is easier to replace than fix. I've got an extra one laying around if you need one. Just have a professional shop pull that core support and straighten your frame horns for you, the start bolting new parts back on.

judgeing from your picture it dosen't look too bad, just replace the bumper itself, easier and safer then trying to rebend it, and i can't realy tell from the pics on how bad the core support is, but it could probably be saved. not too bad.
