Default 97 accord accident fan problem

I hit a car with my accord and completely knocked off my bumber and bent my hood. nothing major was damaged internally but the bigger of the 2 fans was pushed in and something internal hits the fan when it spins. Does anyone know what i could do about it> Could i replace it with a smaller slim fan? any way i could jimmmy rig it? welcoming all suggestions thank you

Pic? Sounds like the blades of the fan are hitting the rad.....not a good thing as at some point those plastic blades will either break off or cause a leak in the rad.

I will provide pics tomorrow I believe his thing hitting the fan is a metal or plastic thing from inside the engine, the opposite direction of the radiator but I could be wrong I will provide pics thank you

It may be the fan blades are hitting the fan shroud. Pics. would definitely help.
