    How much frontal damage though? Repairing or replacing multiple front panels (front, front-sides, bonnet, bumper...) can cost more than repairing or replacing the entire engine! :o If front-side panels are only lightly damaged then you might try to flog or repair, but if the damage is more severe then there's every chance you have compromised structural integrity and damaged the suspension and chassis. Add the cost of panel repair/replace and the rad/coolant system work and it might only be scrappable. If you have a mate in the industry get them to have a look-see.
