Default front damage repair how much work *searched*

i know where some of the spot welds are just from looking but not all that are required. i know that this car needs atleast the whole front part from the driverside mount up on both sides, because the damage protrudes onto the front passanger side. the radiator support is also all messed up along with the fact that the part that bolts on is out of align also because it is bent.

i have searched and searched and only found archieved topics about spot weld removers sold by snap-on and the pictures where not available. also all of the spotweld topics are on rhd clip installs. i will get better pictures of the area but you can get a rough idea as to how bad it is.


it is partially under the bumper support where you can see that the bracket behind the crossmember is crooked.



the bottom right of the picture you can see the sheet metal is creased


let me know if you have any good links that i havnt been able to find or what another term for what i am wanting to replace is called
thanks for all you help

Looks like there is a lot more damage there than what the car is actually worth in terms of labor/time.
I would personally get another chassis to save the hastle.
