Wrecked my 986

So my daughter hit that yellow curb at the gas station with the bumper. Hissing sound and dripping something that is not coolant. Brake fluid? Any ideas on how to fix? I'm taking the bumper off now

If it isn't coolant, likely it is AC gas / oil stuff.

Doesn't sound like wrecked though, damaged I guess?

I'm being a bit dramatic. But yeah... damaged. Is replacing the passenger side radiator difficult? Expensive? Any good videos on how to fix? Where can I buy new parts?

'Hissing' sound could well be A/C leak. Both front corners of the car has A/C evaporator radiators at the front of the actual coolant radiators.
If the A/C is leaking, the fluid you'll see should be green color and oily.
