Bird strike!

Driving through Wales yesterday and a black bird decided to fly across the road, at the wrong time, I hoped it got across but when stopped to check it hadn't.

Damn thing went a@rse first into the lower grill, exploded and stayed wedge in. Disgusting trying to pry it out!

Anyway, its destroyed the lower grille, and then there is an internal plastic grille protecting the efficient dynamic blades, thankfully these haven't snapped and are working fine.

Can anybody help identify a document that details the parts I need, as the front end will need to come off and would rather not do that without the parts to fix it ready?

Do you want to fix this yourself? Or is it covered by insurance.

Either fix it myself or if my dealer gives a decent price, ill let them do it. Don't want to put it on my insurance, unless its very expensive.
