I was on my way to work when my car hydroplaned onto a curb and messed up my right front wheel, i was wondering if you guys could help with the damage that you can see, and just let me know whats wrong with it. And if possible a estimate to fix.

That silver-colored part appears to be part of the spindle. To do that kind of damage suggests the lower ball joint took a lot of stress too, and possibly the wheel bearing too. The lower control arm may also be bent. You need a suspension and alignment specialist to look at it and give you a repair estimate. Not everything can be seen in the photos or can be inspected.
