I'm also from the St. Charles area (St. Peters actually). If you haven't picked a shop yet send me a PM and I'll give you a few you can contact that do good work.
I recommend you use an OEM bumper, after market aren't quite the same. My 1st C5 I hit a raccoon and decided I'd go after market front bumper, I regretted it the entire time I owned that car.

And I will definitely be using all OEM parts.

Alright.... I got the car back a few days ago but choose to tuck it under the cover due to bad weather, today was nicer (around 40 degrees) and I decided to clean her up.
Massive thanks to Brandy @Brandy's Auto for fixing her up, he did a spectacular job.
Another shout-out to rmendoza (Rick) for helping me out with my hood situation. 
Here are some after-pics.. Sorry for the low quality, I don't have access to a good camera.
My weapon of choice...
This stuff is seriously awesome, I LOVE it.
