Unhappy I was in an accident

Today I was headed to visit my folks who live in a nearby city (a 2 hour trip), I was driving along doing about 110 km/h when this fucktard who was driving like a maniac in an old malibu crashed into the car in front of him, I slammed on the brakes but I didn't have enough room to stop so I crashed into him as well.
At first I thought my car would be FUBAR but after I got out it didn't look that bad (I mean, it's messed up but not nearly as bad as I spected), for some reason the malibu's rear end was really high so the hood took most of the damage, both of the headlights mounting "tabs" are broken so theyll need to be replaced, the front bumper has hole so it has to be replaced too, the hood obviously needs to be replaced and the side panels are a litle bent but I think they can be fixed.
The car runs fine and nothing happened to me (thank you god ) but it will have to spend some time off the roads while I get all the insurance paperwork done and after that, while it gets fixed.

Here are some pics:

Oh, as if wrecking my car wasn't bad enough I left the keys inside while checking out the damage and the doors locked themselves (damn you alarm system ) so I had to break one of the windows to open the car...I know, I'm a moron .

I was in the middle of a main road/highway so it wasn't safe to stay there for too long, I already called mazda and it only costs like 15$ to replace it (the window) I broke one of the small ones from the rear door.

The part that sucks is that I always have a spare key in my wallet but I took it out a week ago and forgot to put it back.

Now that your front end is messed up you can get the MP3 front bumper and grill, fenders. If the shop/insurance will let you. You'll just be without fogs.

Damn that really sucks about your car. I bet you were ready to beat the tar out of the guy who caused the mess. Are you being charged for following too closely, even though the jerkoff should be charged for all damage? You can tell the insurance, I had a MSP motor in it, now it just looks like the standard 2.0!

If I was living in the US this would be the perfect time to get the MSP front end and a CF hood....but I don't . I'm going to contact a guy I know that works at mazda to see if they can get the bumper for me but I doubt it. I am however considering getting a custom fiber glass bumper made out of the old one that's being replaced, I'd like them to copy the Postert f bumper.
