Front end damage - thoughts on drive-ability

Hey all, yesterday my car was hit head on at low speed while I was stationary in a parking garage. Luckily it was at low speed and no one was hurt, but the front bumper was scratched and cut into in a number of spots, the front license plate got dented in and knocked off, and the driver's side headlight was shattered. Pictures below:

It was clearly at the fault of the other driver so insurance will cover it, and I've identified a few body shops to get estimates from. But I wanted to ask the community if you all think there is any reason to not drive the car to the body shop. Of course I wouldn't do that at night (haven't turned on the headlights and don't plan on doing so), but wasn't sure if there was anything else to be concerned about (front radiators, etc.). Here are some pictures:
