truck tire meet front bumper at 70mph

Long story short. Was behind a F150, it ran over a semi-tire debris (a good two foot section) and the debris flew right into the front kidney grille, DS. I stuck there as I was slowing down, pulling into right lanes and shoulder. Then when slowed down enough, the tire fell and hit the lower bumper lip. Result was kidney grille loss two tooth, cracked clear coat (and maybe the crack is deeper into the paint); half a foot section of this damage to the bumper.

I'm thinking of a cutting pad and compound with my Dewalt polisher to see if there's any improvement... suggestions?
