Open the hood. Have somone go through the usual start procedure, while you're standing over the engine, ear back by the UIM. when the person in the car gets to the pre-start position (the last click prior to actually engaging the starter), you should hear the injectors kick over.

Also, look and see if there's a line loose. It's possible, depending on how bad the impact was, something got femangled....

Check to see if any lines got crushed o kinked. You could have flattened your fuel filter...
