Unhappy I Hit The Tree and The Tree Won!!!!!

Ok,
I admit it.....I wasn't trying to kill the tree. I was just trying to make a left turn; but I'm blaming my 60 yr. old eye sight.....
I now need a new grille, left headlight/turn signal assembly, need to remove the left front fender and left side amber marker light.
My question is: how many special GM clips do I need to reinstall the front fender; the grille, etc.
I went to a GM factory order site to see pictures of what is needed and they show pictures of the various clips but don't tell me the number needed for each item.
Also, will I need any other odd fasteners for the headlight/turn signal assembly bucket, etc.
Thanks a bunch in advance!
Just so you know, the tree's expected to pull through, my pride, it's still "touch and go"......

That pic makes me appreciate my brush guard even more. My brush guard is no longer conformed as oem, yet no damage to my H3.

There isn't any plastic repair shops? Does that damage warrants replacement?
When I introduced my truck to ditch, end result was similar


Sorry, no better "after" photos exists.
Found a guy who dos plastics and he glued, repaired, painted everything, less than new parts costs.

Most of them probably did not break? The inner fender uses like 12 of the push button clips.

You may have busted the front inner bumper (bumper filler), they break pretty easy??? Look at #15 below on your truck to see if it is cracked on that end.

Thanks Doc,
I'll check.
Do you have any idea how many clips hold on the front fender?
I appreciate the info!

Easy.... go to ebay and look at the LH fenders for sale looking at the inside... me thinks 11. This one is missing one at the bottom.
