Did the lever feel as normal, or was it very easy to pull? You may have to get access through the grill to get the bonnet open, and this generally means busting it up.
A replacement grill can be had on here probably, or on ebay, if indeed you need to take it apart. If you think you need more anti freeze in the car, then I would certainly get it done very soon, as snow and frost are forecast for later this week. Grrr! not Brrr!
