S40 Front smashed "Should I buy"?
 
Any enthusiast out there that are familiar with the S40? I am seriously thinking of purchasing this 2001 S40 and am looking for help to see what I will need to replace on this car. See Pictures!! It was hit only on the front and air bags did not deploy.
I think Iam looking at 1) Hood 2) R and L Headlights (although both still work) 3) Bumper 4) Support bar accross the front where the hood comes down (does this go all the way accross? )anything else that you can see would be appreciated!

My daughter hit a deer in her S40, and it did a bit less damage than what you show - nothing under the hood was messed up. Cost to repair: $2200.

Doesn't look all that bad.
Will you be getting it cheap?

It has 90,000 miles and I bought it today for $3200...do you think thats to much? also the bar that goes across the front...the one with a yellow and red sticker...is that a one piece that goes all the way across? where is a good place to buy headlights, hood etc?
Thanks for your help

I believe that is one piece welded on the ends.
I would try to straighten.
Look on E-bay for the headlights.
The hood search for junkyards that might have one.
