This may not cheer you up too much, but it really doesn't take much contact to crumple it back like that, and while any pre purchase inspection should have warned you it won't really change how the car feels as long as the panel mounting points are in the right spots so it looks right externally. I would clean up and repaint the rust spots though
I decided my first mod would be a FMIC for it to gulp in some chilled air:
When I removed the bumper to make a start on fitting it, that’s when it started to reveal its past to me.
One very nasty looking buckled inner wing…
…and a not so happy looking front panel and crossmember 😫
It didn’t look too bad, it was more what I found underneath when the modification itch started. It had clearly been used as a previous track weapon and suffered quite a smash to the front end.
