Sorry to hear that. Personally, I would want to replace everything with OEM parts to resolve any fitment issues caused from the collision.

There are plenty of aftermarket front facia's to choose from so I would start looking at 370ztune.com (forum sponsor) for some ideas on the look you want. Your insurance will send out an adjuster to estimate the cost of repairs, so I would ask to see if they can just send you a check for the amount and then have it fixed yourself. A few estimates from different places would help them decide on an amount and its really up to you to decide what parts go back on the car. You could have a shop replace a panel with a salvaged panel from a different car for example. Note that the insurance estimate will only cover the cost to revert the car back to how it was before the accident.
