Default Frame Damage Repair Estimate? (w/ pics)

I'm looking to have some minor frame damage worked on next week. How much do you think these fixes should run at a decent shop?

Besides from the obvious need to replace the radiator support, there are three problem areas.

1 - Front face of frame member where bumper support mounts is bent inward and needs to be pulled out / flattened again.

2 - Sheet metal for fender mount is bent in the front. This looks like it should be an easy fix

3 - Tow hook mounting location bent in. I don't care as much about fixing this as a new (unbent ) tow hook should still mount there.

And of course the need to measure/adjust to make sure the rest of the frame is still in alignment.

I had the same issue getting stuff fixed. I found a shop for 1500$ with a primer fixed my splash gaurds, bumper, fenders, hood, lights, and core support and a new radiator.

Other shops quoted around 4k, Look around it saves good money for future things

Thanks for the input.

Has anyone had alignment problems with a shop fixing the frame but not putting the parts back on? I'd like to go this route if possible.
