Coolant Leak from Scrape!

OK, I scraped against a rock in the road at low speed (in a cemetery, actually), and it scraped the right front bumper corner. There's also some fluid leaking. Which radiator is placed right there down low on the right? Is that an intercooler radiator? I guess my question is whether I can drive the car moderately without worrying too much until I can get it to the dealer on Monday. If the intercooler's not cooling and low or out of fluid, is it possible it's just bad for performance but not unsafe or bad for the car?

Wishful thinking says I can use it over the weekend....

Any ideas? I'm an idiot.

ouch, sorry to hear that.. it's a 2016 too I would try to figure out what the fluid substance is first and determine what to do.

I think I nicked the right intercooler radiator (or one of its coolant lines). It ran fine until I got it to the dealer today. I'll let them sort it out. Thanks!
