Best way to drive? I think it's a lot like chess, you always want to be one move ahead of all the threats outside your influence. I remember a video posted on this forum of a member who was hit in the rear end by a big rig, driven by an absolute idiot.
I read about things breaking on cars and all I can think about is they HAD to know something was going on.

Your car should be easily fixable.

Make sure the frame is straight.
Get the hood to open and close properly.
Finally get the mounting points for the front bumper cover in place and do a trial reinstall of the bumper cover.
Bolt the headlights in place and see how well they are aligned.

If the radiator is not leaking leave it alone.

See if there is a car you can borrow from someone while you are doing this. Lights, alignment and a mounted license plate are all you are legally required to have.
