Sorry to hear about your bad luck. I've seen insurance companies total a car for a lot less damage than that. I believe it has a lot to do with the insurance company and the owner. You might convince them to fix it if you plead your case. That damage doesn't look too bad but they'll need to remove the bumper cover to see the extent of the damage. Hitting the bumper at an angle like that has me worried the most. Straight on it can handle a hit like that. At an angle it might bend the frame rail where the bumper shocks mount. I'm 95% sure they won't compensate you for the IMS or anything aftermarket. In my opinion, if the bumper shock mounts are bent you should have it totaled.
