yea the guy was nice enough to call his insurance and say it was his fault so my brother didnt call the cops, and my brothers friend owns a body/paint shop so hes going to fix it up cheap which will allow him to buy carbon fiber hood and a new aftermarket bumper

It's not that bad. It will still be expensive (probably around $4000), but not bad at all. I've seen much worse at my shop.

That car does not have a frame. It is a unibody car. The point of impact is to high for it to have affected the "frame rails." What is pushed back is the core support which is a bolt on unit made of fiberglass that is most likely cracked.
