The thing is the car came with Toyo Proxies4 and apparently some people say it just can't grip wet floor really well

Sad to know this has happened man.

But luckily it's actually easily replaced.

You need the front bumper, side guard and bonnet replaced and it'll look like brand new.

Ah that sucks dude. As others have said it could have been much worse. Accidents are always pretty bad and no one ever wants to experience them, but yeah the first ones are the worse. I remember my first crash, luckily it was in the work ute and not my lancer.
Just get in contact with your insurance company and they will sort it all out for you, and report it to the police as the damage will be over $1000 :(
