Sorry for your bad luck.
I purchased my 300d with similar damage but it was more of a scraping blow in the case of my car.
I would check the tie rod and the center link as well. And I would wonder about the spindle.
You need the correct spring compressor to do the guide rod. If it buckled the guide rod that bad, you will need to make sure that you haven't buckled the tub behind the guide rod mount too. Sounds like a pretty solid impact.
