What would I need to repair?
 I recently got into a collision with a concrete barrier as my car skid in the rain. I recently got a brand new engine/transmission from a dealership in it that is still untouched from any damage so I've decided to keep the car and fix it up. The car still works, sounds normal, no apparent leaking fluids. I was wondering what all I would obviously need repaired on this car. I have already bought new airbags for it.

Re: What would I need to repair?
If it hit hard enough to set the airbag off you will likely need more than just bolt on repairs.
Do you know a mechanic or panel beater who can put it up in the air can check the chassis rails etc?

Re: What would I need to repair?
I agree, you need to have a shop look at it to determine if there is frame damage, suspension damage, you will need a front end alignment, you will need someone to install the airbags and clear the codes. It looks like there may be damage to the lower radiator support, which is a weld-on part. The radiator looks like it will need to be replaced. Probably the a/c condenser, fan... I would have a shop look at it and have them perform the work that you are not comfortable doing.
