Well the front he took off is called the core support. It was removed by drilling out the spot welds. The trick is to not drill through both layers of metal. But rather just the top portion so the core support gives way. Any body shop should beable to replace it for you. Its pretty ez just takes time. They sell spotweld cutters. There are 2 types. You do also need to weld a new one back on. So if you dont have one available. Let the professionals do it.
Don't use this type, they are horrible and the teeth break off way too easily.
