Default Is this worth it?

I have some minor chassis damage to my frame where the headlights and radiator attach, but it is limited to that area, I have panels attached and they are in good shape, and painted well. Is it worth getting it straightened out by a body shop, or should I just look for a shell to swap all my stuff over?

It doesnt look that bad, there is a small gap on the driver side headlight between the filler and the light and the bumper, but there is no gap on the passenger side, so it looks like my car is winking. Its just annoying to me.

So New shell or Get it straightened?

sounds like those parts would need to be welded in to be replaced so pics would help
