It’s hard to tell probably from the photo, but is the front wing dented, or is it just a reflection ?.
The bumper will flex a long way before it actually causes permanent damage, it has a memory so will take a fair amount to break it.
The gap between the bonnet and in the front wing has definitely closed up.
Also the bonnet edge does not align correctly with the tip of the wing.
I think the wing has been pushed in and back by the glancing impact and bent its location brackets maybe
.
So the bumper cover is trying to return to its normal position, but the wing remains in its relocated position under tension.
