accidents happen when u least exspect it. your hood alone is worth 800+ from the factory. Pay your deductible and get your car professionaly repaired.

Does not look to bad. More damage than I would expect for hitting something at 5-10mph.

my first question is simple... Do you have snow tires

my second one is not so simple, Why would you drive in the snow for no reason?

Can you post pics

Its gonna be well over $500.

Good luck.

Ohh yeah Red fluid, is probaly ATF (from the ACD) Don't cycle the switch or push the throttle more than 50% even with the ignition on. best to get that fixed before you think about driving the car, its VERY expensive if you brake anything important. hopefully the acd pump is ok, its right behind the bumper in the front left corner under the headlight.
