Definitely broke the plastic radiator support/mount assembly. Looks like the metal upper mount (the u-shaped top deal with all of the factory "warning" stickers) is bent as well. It's hard to tell what all is damaged before a complete tear-down and checking on a frame rack. If this were an insurance claim, I am pretty confident this would be a total loss. Hope your friend is OK. Also hope they have good insurance. Too bad about the MINI. Not looking good.....

KBB is only about $4500. Looks like a dead MINI to me.

It's a shop here in Houston, Mexican guys who might not do everything perfectly but still make it look nice.

Wow! Looks great. Happy to see it's all back in one piece and you can enjoy it once again. What was the whole list that needed to be repaired?

So obviously the windshield, hood, radiator, radiator bracket, fans, oil radiator (not sure the name of that), head light, grill, some AC lines, free on and radiator fluid.

Not to horrible I think
