Did you pop the hood yet?
The radiator and fan are most definitely shot.
Looks like a time for more mods, glad no one was hurt.

Looks like the Jeep did pretty well for itself... could only imagine how well it would have done with a hard core bumper.

Good to hear that you and the g/f are okay. Good thing you still had the factory bumper on there or else you two may have been a l'il worse for the wear.
