I've been happy with this source for used parts.

https://www.car-part.com/

I'd compare DIY cost to Bodyshop, then decide on Ins. claim.
Good Luck

Thanks for all the replies everyone. I think I am gonna see how noticeable the damage looks on the grill after I add the new bumper and winch. Hopefully in the next week or 2. I am dropping a boat load on some mods to the Mojave I have planned and my Nighthawk Customs build just came in so gotta pay for that too!

Just make sure you always say that the rake hit the vehicle, the vehicle did not hit the rake.
This is key. If you say you hit it....they'll say you should have avoided it....your fault.

It was flying like a missile and hit YOU.

I got a plastic Rubicon take off bumper here in NC you can have, but like the other offer, I'm a fair distance from you.

To those who are against the angry grill - they have become popular here due to the slow drivers camping out in the left lane which is illegal here in FL. Those who have angry grills like to ride these driver's bumper showing their dissatisfaction.

Might want to look at @Northridge4x4 video on modifying your grill for easier removal before installing the bumper and winch so you don’t have to remove them again if you decide to replace the grill later

How is that working out?

Sorry that happened to you and glad everyone’s ok.

Someone mention dashcams. Do they have enough resolution to read license plates?

In the words of the great sage Forest Gump, "Stupid is as stupid does."
Seems to apply to both parties in this scenario.
