Default front fascia opinions?

as I posted previously I hit a racoon last monday doing maybe 55mph (it was early morning, like 5:15a.m.). The initial damage was $1300. The shop repairing it for me had the front end apart and found more damage so the total is still climbing. The damage I know of is a busted radiator, bent trans cooler, damaged front fascia, and maybe MINOR bent suspension. So fair warning to all avoid racoons if possible. They probably have racoon friends off to the side cheering each other on for hurting our sexy cars. I'm thinking of seeing price wise if it will be cheaper or easier to order an aftermarket fascia to begin customizing the body.

hey man, i scraped up the bottom of the front fascia (not too noticeable unless you get up and look at it), and it will be comparable in priceto put on the gt body kit instead of just having the front fascia re-painted. of course, changing to dual exhaust to fit the rear fascia will be extra, but to me its a no-brainer.

A Roush Nose would look great. Just look at mine at the link below.
